but all kidding aside - Some years ago I used Nokian Hakkapeliitta tyres. Great if you have a lot of ICE but if used on bare tarmac they wear quickly and yes those part numbers are Saab part numbers Your car works really well with 205-50ZR-16 tires, it is geared for that size Don't try to use 55 series they will rub like crazy, are you in USA/Can? I found the TCS size in my notes it is 175-70-R1586T your normal spare is T-115/70R16
Winter sizes are (BTW some dealers make up packages including rims)
185/65-R15 87T,
185/65-R15 91T,
205/50 R16 86H
BTW check and see if your car has the "S" chassis, if so, any tire other than a Z rating will "wiggle" around with you at speed. If you go 15 inch 205/60ZR 15 is the good size to use with your gearing
other sizes to use if you have standard chassis are the V rated tires 195/65 VR 15 (307 mm rolling radius) Hope this helps
