Your Saab was designed and certified for optimal handling and ride with specific tire standards in terms of tread design, dimensions and load index ratings. Only tires and wheels within these Saab design specifications should be fitted on your car.

It is important to your safety to make sure that your tires are in good condition, with proper tread depth and without any deformation or tear. A tread in good condition is necessary to maximize tire performance and to help avoid aquaplaning in wet conditions.

For your safety, please check your tires on a regular basis.

Correct tire pressure: a mandatory step to maximize the handling, ride and life of your tires
Proper tire pressure is an important safety item. Consequences of low pressure could be:

-          Poor handling characteristics
-          Longer braking distances
-          Premature tire wear
-          In extreme cases of under inflation, tires can over-heat causing severe tire damage

It is recommended to check tire pressure every month including the spare tire. Tire pressure should be adjusted to load conditions, so whenever you are traveling with a fully loaded car or towing a trailer, adjust your tire pressures according  to the specifications listed in your owner´s manual.

Tire pressure should be checked when the tire is cold; not after being driven.

In addition, tires that have been correctly balanced and properly aligned will have a longer life. That is why the expertise of your Saab Dealer is so important.
