I posted the following on the 93 BB last night but I thought I might get additional help here on the 95 BB:
"With sadness in my fingertips as I type this, my 10 1/2 year marriage to my 2002 95 Aero Wagon ended this weekend. It was a very enjoyable relationship and I will miss her uniqueness, among many other things. When I bought my 95 new in 2002 I also purchased the Saab winter tire package which I still own. The 95 winter tire package is the 16" 7 spoke BBS alloy version w/ 205/55/16 Gislaved tires. I now have 215/55/16 (Gislaved Nord Frost 5 97T XL) tires mounted. Will this winter tire package fit on my wife's 2007 93 Aero Vert? Thanks kindly".
I originally thought I'd sell my winter tire package and then in an epiphany related moment, I wondered if it would work on my wife's 93 Aero Vert. Her 93 Vert has the factory 235/45/17 wheels. If they do fit I'm sure it will make for an "ugly duckling" look but my number one concern is the impact on the cars handling and safety -- aside from the usual change when going from a HP all season tire to a dedicated snow tire.
