Vibration after changing tires. Had rebalanced 3 times and nothing helped. I had the car checked for suspension problems, nothing was found. After talking to several other Saab owners, I realized that I was not the only one who is experienceing this.

After replacing all four tires on my wife's 1999 Saab 9-5 and on my 1999 Saab 9-5 a vibration showed up at various speeds. Each car underwent numerous tire rebalancings at different tire shops as well as our Saab dealer. Nothing helped. On my car, I returned the tires and bought new, more expensive ones thinking that maybe the problem was in the tires. After the new set were installed, the vibration was still there. I posted my concerns on a popular Saab website saabnet.com for advice from other Saab owners. The response was overwhelming. Seems as though many other Saab 9-5 owners have had this exact problem after changing tires. No one has found out what the problem is, some went away by themselves and others are just dealing with it. I think something is wrong with the 9-5 and now that I know many have had this problem, I am very concerned.
