I too would be reluctant to drive the expressway with a donut on a front wheel, but on the back? Not so much. Been there, done that, and all without drama (other than that which blew the real tire to begin with). Still, the speed/mileage limitation (and to be honest, I did cheat on the speed) are a concern. To alleviate that, I have upgraded the spare tire contingent on all the Saabs under my supervision (9-5 Wagon, 9-3 ss, sc, and scv as owned by me, my daughter, my son in law, and my brother, respectively) with full sized spares. It's a perfect fit in all the 9-3s. It interferes with the roll out load floor mechanism in the wagon, but otherwise fits fine. I can't comment on the 9-5 sedan.
