taylor,
i just had dunlop sp sport 5000's installed on my 1990 talledega red spg with stock spg rims.the size i used was 205/55/15 wr. no rubbing issues at all and the tires handle, and ride awesome. these tires with my stock rims ride better than the the 195/60/15 hr michelin's i had. i was not looking for the per se all out performance tire with the low treadwear rating due to i have alot of other things i need to do with my money. the dunlops appear to be a good tire. speed rating on the dunlop is up to 168 mph. i hope this helps. i hear some people have gone with the 205/50/15, but you will have a lower threadwear rating. i needed a tire that was going to last awhile due to my daily commute is 80-90 miles.

bell racing pedals with a dead pedal also
painted brake calipers red. looks good. planning on getting the big bore throttle body from spg 9 pretty soon also.
having vent covers and wheel arc trim painted talledega red next week. also i just installed a black hood protection strip from saab dealer here in atlanta. looks very nice. part number 02 60 182. have another person to help you with installing it, it will make it easier. saab parts person stated last week that there were 400 in their warehouse, so they are plentiful. $32 at the dealer. dunlops were $88 at national tire and battery in atlanta, but can be ordered thru tire rack.
finally got my auto right with the hunting idle.i think i may have the only talledega red spg in the metro area of atlanta.
good luck !!!
