I settled on a set of Kumho Ecsta 4X tires from TireRack.com. This is a new "Ultra High Performance All Season" tire model from a brand I'd never heard of. However, the price was good ($80 each and a $50 rebate) and, more importantly, they got universally good reviews across the Web from drivers of all sorts of cars including sporty luxury sedans. Since I'm in the South I don't run into extreme weather much and my driving style can best be described as "Granny." (I was once pulled over on the way to St. Louis by a cop wondering why I was going 55 in a 70 zone.) Thanks, everyone. I learned a lot about tires and will soon need to put a new set on my other Saab -- a '99 93 convertible (86,000 miles). Maybe I'll switch the Potenzas to my daily driver and put the Kumhos on the convertible if I don't like them. Thanks again!!!
