I bought 4 215/55-16 H to use as winter tires on separate wheels, my Gislaved Nordfrosts were undersized at 205-55-16.[have an 02 ARC] Most Nokian WR tires in the Saab sizes are XL load range. I believe mine carry a 98 load range, above the O.E. by 5? They are the equal of the O.E. Energy MXV 4 Plus. I would see no down side to running them 4 seasons if you do not want to do the seasonal switch over. They are a VERY good rain tire as well, they have the mountain and snowflake symbol indicating a true winter tire, they are rated for excellent mileage, they track straight and true at speed,they are quiet, they do not squeel for help in cornering, It is the best 4 season tire I have driven on. That said, I am putting summer tires on new 17" wheels. I am a tire junkie. Tires are the single biggest improvement you can make on a car.
