Decided on tires today.......

Bit the bullet today after some research (including your comments here)and went with 205/55/16 Kumho Ecsta ASVs on my 97 9000 with the upgraded SAAB sport/Aero suspension. Also got an alignment.
Change in tires removed a severe moaning/wuh/wuh/wuh sound that I thought could be wheel bearings, so that expense is now off the table. Sound was due to worn out Dunlop Sport A2s, which I guess they don't make anymore as no one had them in stock.
ASVs seem quiet and smooth, although rainy weather and leaves prevent any hard driving today. I'll check in on how they run later.
Got them at Sears, $89 + $15 m&b. They go on sale tomorrow at $5 off each. Conti Contacts were the second choice, about $18 more per tire.
