2008 Saab 9-5 Spare Tire
The Saab 9-5, a vehicle recognized for its superior safety features and luxe comfort, is designed with a provision to carry a compact or full-size spare tire, depending on the configuration of the specific model. Typically, the compact spare tire for a Saab 9-5 is sized around T125/85 R16, which is intended for temporary, limited distance travel until the regular tire can be repaired or replaced. Although this temporary “donut” tire is smaller and lighter, it helps to save space and fuel consumption for everyday driving. However, if the Saab 9-5 is equipped with a full-size spare tire, it usually matches the dimensions of the standard tires on the vehicle, offering a seamless transition for longer drives after a tire mishap. This standard tire size could be 215/55R16, 225/55R16, or 235/45R17 depending upon the chosen trim level and package of the car. To ensure road safety, it is highly recommended that vehicle owners routinely check the condition and air pressure of their Saab 9-5 spare tire.
