Hi Len (and other Saab rallyists):

>Size(s) needed for my Saab 96 are 165x15, 155x15, 500x15 or 550x15 with a

I do have quite a few 155x15 and 165x15 snow tires, but they are all old
and cracked. Nothing that I would rely on for safe use. I do understand the
problem. I also have quite a few standard Saab 5-bolt rims that need to
find a new home.

You might try Pat Greer at Greer Enterprises in Milwaukee, Wisc., a Nokian
and Hankook tire distributor. They do not have a web site (though I keep
trying to convince Pat that he NEEDS one). Phone is 414- 545-2296. Pat is
an old time Saab guy, so if anyone could find deep treaded tires, he would
be the one. Let me know if he is of any help.
