The Saab 9-3 spare tire, typically known as a 'donut' or space-saver tire, is designed to be lightweight and compact for easy storage in the vehicle's trunk. This type of tire is smaller than the standard model both in diameter and width and has a different tread design perfectly created for temporary, emergency use with the primary purpose of getting the driver to a safe location or service center.

This size is smaller than the standard Saab 9-3 tire, ensuring that it doesn't occupy much space in the trunk but also limiting its performance and endurance compared to a conventional tire.
