Fitment comes from each tyre's manufactured size list, and the sizes are the ones drivers reported when they reviewed. Check the size, load index and speed rating on your own doorplate before buying - a size a previous owner ran is not always the size your car left the factory on.

Nexen N7000 235-45-17- Saab Automobile 9 3 1.9 TiD (120PS) Vector Sport Airflow 7,000 miles January 13, 2013
I had 4 of these tires new, replaced after 15,000km with Bridgestone MY02 never looked back again. I have a Saab 93 TID, dry grip was good not great and wet, your gonna die real soon, lost control after 40km going thru a roundabout. Just pay the $30 more and get a Bridgestone or Kumho.

Continental Sport Contact 2 225-45-17-W Saab Automobile 9 3 1.9 TiD (120PS) Vector Sport Airflow 72,000 miles January 21, 2010
These tyres worked great for my style of driving combined with the mainly motorway mileage i have put on them. These were the rears on my Saab and covered 72K before i swapped them to the front before the sidewalls perished. They were only changed this week because i wanted winter tyres but they still had maybe 2mm of tread remaining. Be advised these are summer tyres so no surprise here when i say the snow performance was non-exsistant. I got stuck on the slightest on inclines on packed snow. I will now use SportContact 3's when the ambient temps average out above 8 degress or so...

Yokohama AVS DB S2 225-45-17-W Saab Automobile 9 3 1.9 TiD (120PS) Vector Sport Airflow 19,000 miles August 29, 2008
Superb grip particularly in the wet, round corners and (mini-)roundabouts. The most disappointing aspect is the high wear - having to replace them after only 19,000 miles of pretty moderate [ave. 60-65 mph motorway] driving. The tyres were quiet noticeably for only the first 5,000 miles - with Yokohama's low-noise claims with [AVS "dB"] etc. not having stood the test of time, I'd say. Responsive tyres with good all round stability. I'm replacing them with Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric.
