I'm glad to see a few people can appreciate the driver feel that Saab has put into their chasis design, the tires are part of that equation. The Michelin Pilots that Saab put on the 9000's for several years were the best tire that you could buy in their era.
I now use Michelin Pilot Sports on both my Volvo V 70 and my 9000 Aero, with Michelin pilot Alpin exclusively on them and my new WRX for winter tires. I do not recommend any of the Blizzack tires as they do not have adequate sidewall and tread reinforcement for our cars at any speed, the speed rating has less to do with speed than it has to do with tire structure which affects how the car behaves in all circumstances.
