    Like a lot of here people here I run dedicated summer tires and winter tires.

    The stock Conti ProContact that came on the car were OK, but wore out in about 20k miles. I replaced them with BF Goodrich G-force Sport 235/345/17 that I got from Tire Rack for about $102 each.

    In the winter I run 16in Goodyear Eagle Ultragrips. I got a deal on a wheel and tire package from Just Saab.

    Quick update. Tires went on early last week. Pros: They are super quiet and a nice ride. Cons: Lost ~3 MPG, now getting ~25/26 Highway ~19 City.... that's a bummer.

    It's difficult to determine a change in fuel mileage in just one week. My fuel mileage ranges from a high of 22 mpg to a low 30 mpg.

    MPG difference is due to not fill up to the top the gas tank, then calculates a few gallons and more miles and in the following fill up you can find more gallons and less miles.

    that is the MPG differences.
