obviously off an ACS 135 cabrio...the first thing i thought when i saw them is saab... think they'd look good?

snow4_1man · 05-07-2008, 10:53 AM

Hmm hard to say, they look really busy but not in a horrible way. Depends on the color of the car. IMO

Castor Troy · 05-07-2008, 10:53 AM

i see those more on a bmw 3 series than a saab, tbh

nowhereman · 05-07-2008, 11:20 AM

Photshop? someone put them on a 900 and then a Viggen then a 9000. Might look okay with the right calipers and rotors.

oh i think it'd look awful on a 3 series... sorta like how it doesn't look good on the 1 series. maybe with the difference in size between the 2 cars it might make a difference... but i can't see it on a 3er. i was thinking on either a black or blue viggen they'd look pretty good...

They're kind of like a gnarly, updated version of the old soccerball wheels. Kinda cool in my eyes.

Castor Troy · 05-07-2008, 11:28 AM

honestly, i dont really like them at all

8valvegrowl · 05-07-2008, 12:03 PM

They sort of remind me of the Cosmic Alloys that came on my MGBGT.

Pics is on a Mini, but similar to mine:

I dig 'em. They are different.

almost.

VAGGEN · 05-07-2008, 01:11 PM

They'd look better on an 04+ SS than anything else, I think.

But not an 03 SS?

Supergreensol · 05-08-2008, 07:36 AM

If you guys want to post up a couple of Viggen or SS pics, I'll be happy to photochop 'em in there for you. Either that or point me to a couple photos you think would work linky wise. Graphic Designer + bored at work = Trouble. Haha.

caseysturrup · 05-08-2008, 09:04 AM

IMHO that would be a no. they are way to busy and clustered. wait and get a set of nice clean looking wheels

8valvegrowl · 05-08-2008, 10:02 AM

I think he was being hypothetical about the looks, not in the market to buy them. Seeing as how they are AC Schnitzer wheels, they won't fit a Saab, and they will probably cost $500+ a wheel...

there's no way in hell i'd buy them! may saab, if i ever get around to fixing it, will forever stay stock. i just thought they might look kinda cool on a saab... remind me of maybe the double spoke III? i dunno saab wheels.... they remind me of one of the saab wheels except for they're 5 spoke instead of 3... err... rather a 10 spoke instead of 6.

now let me search for a few pictures that might work...

not sure how good you are with photoshop... but try this one:

prophet · 05-09-2008, 08:27 PM

while you're at it....

prophet · 05-09-2008, 08:35 PM

wagons are hot!

and finally.....

that's all i have cuz it's all a few quick searches turned up. photoshop those and if there's any potential i'll find some better pictures.

If I was to go the AC Schnitzer route these would be my pick
