Saab 9-5 Spare Tires
The Saab 9-5 used 5x110 mm and 5x120 mm bolt pattern variations from 1997 to 2012 along with tire diameters ranging from 25.0" to 26.7" tall. Using a temporary compact spare tire with a diameter close to the standard tire has many benefits, especially for modern vehicles with larger brake calipers and anti-lock brakes or traction control systems.
The tire diameter and the wheel diameter clearance have been taken into account for the specific Saab 9-5 years and options. In this case, 125/80R17 and 165/70R17 spare tire sizes are used to avoid vehicle components while closely matching the original tire size diameters. We've provided a breakdown by vehicle generation and model specifics to help you find the correct Saab 9-5 spare tire.
