Dave, Something to consider :- A non-standard road tyre would also (probably) be subject to constraints (notably speed), and it may well prove impossible to get any qualified advice as to what such constraints might be. It might be better to stick with the space-saver. At least the constraints are known and come from a good source (namely Saab). Well, that's my analysis.
