Need a new wheel....

Jul 26, 2005 7 Replies

I?m looking for a 16" 5-spoke wheel for my 2000 Saab 9-3. My right front wheel is warped and I need a replacement. If anyone has one or knows of a source for a good one please let me know. Thanks.

Jerry,

You probably have one of those 9-3 Viggen "Bend-O-Rims", right????

Which location in the world are you ? There's a few ppl I could suggest but if you're on another continent .......

There's places that claim they can fix damaged alloy wheels, might be worth looking into that.

No, this is a 2000 9-3 SE model (convertible). The wheels are aluminum, 5-Spoke and also came on the 9-5. Here?s a link to a photo of the car:

I?m in the U.S.

Graham,

The best I've ever heard of is a company called "RIM PRO", they do TONS of = Saab wheels, specifically the 9-3 Viggen rims.

Good call! I had one of my 15" Aero rims done 10 years & 100,000km ago - still going strong. That was in Aus though so my dealer recommendation isn't worth jack to you! Suggest you talk to a local tyre & wheel place that handles plenty of imports. Cheers
