    Check out the Dunlop SP Sport A2. I put a set on my wife's 1998 S70 (195/60/15) and liked them so much I put another set on my 1990 744Ti (205/55/16). They are reasonably priced and perform very well except for a little road noise.

    The stock tire size for the '93 850 is 195/60-15. Some '94 turbo cars came with a similar wheel (but 5 lug instead of 4 lug) and 205/55-15 tires. You don't have the clearance to go much bigger, so stick with those two sizes. Fulda Carat Assuro is a good, economical tire that is H speed rated. I have had them on my '93 since I bought it 4 years ago and am happy with the performance and tread life.

      I haave Bridstone potenza RE950's on my 1993 850, with 195 60R 15, and they are great. they handle well, and the tread looks awsome, compared to the everyday all season tires.
