SAAB Alloys

Post by AlandAnn »

I have the chance of a decent set of SAAB alloys, can anyone tell me if they are a good fit?

My steel wheels are ET 39 originals

I believe the SAAB alloys are ET 40

do they fit or will they cause problems?

Answers please :ok

Wouldn't like to say whether they will be strong enough,a Saab will be a lot lighter than a loaded T25,bit risky :ok

as far as I'm aware SAAB didn't do any wheels in 5 x 112 PCD

I could be wrong though

These one's have SAAB caps on them, and they came from a SAAB :D

I've done some research and the one's i'm looking at are 5 x 110 and the T25 needs 5 x 112.

The seller says he can give me some spacers.

Does the seller have spacers or adapter plates to make the saab wheels fit.
