the true Saab RK1 in 18" would be sweet! 18x8 RK1's..... oh i can dream!
Feeler - possible custom saab wheel group buy - read me
Here's the scoop:
18x8 or 19x8
Any bolt pattern
Aluminum mono bloc construction for weight and strength.
Any wheel design we decide
Saab center caps
Weight 19-21 lbs depending on size
Made in the same factory as HRE wheels
6-8 weeks for production
$400 - $450 per wheel
50 sets minimum
We have an opportunity as a Saab community to get what we want - for those of us looking for a Reproduction Saab wheel in the 18 or 19" size. Benefit of this - once a design is chosen, we have have them drilled to fit ANYTHING as long as the offsets are compatible. Meaning - 4 lug for the old school, 5 lug for the current and even the NEW 5 lug of the new generation 9-5 can all be drilled upon order request.
example - the Anniversary Exposed Lug 9000 Aero Wheel;

We could order these (50 set minimum remember) in ANY wheel bolt pattern as mentioned in either an 18" or 19" wheel.
More example of OLD Saab wheels you could have in the 18" or 19" size: SAAB Wheels - a veritable panoply of aluminum
We are NOT limited to these remember - if Saab ever made it, we can clone it and make our own versions in a 18" or 19" wheel.
If there is enough interests - minimum of 50 sets of 4 - then the cost would be roughly $1800 a set - shipping to anywhere will be available. (International as well)
Price could be reduced if by some chance an order of 100 sets could be made. If we do have enough interests in 1 design - then a deposit would be required from each ordering party once we got to that point.

It doesn't have to be a dream - if we have enough people (50) who want the same wheel - they can be made!
some eye candy
18/19 inch super aero wheels..
50 sets would be a big order to fufill though, good luck!

I realize this - as the price is out of my hands and range personally - they are to be made on the same property as HRE wheels by the same quality and standards too mind you. If the interest is there - a heavier alloy could be used to keep the price down to a more logical range mind you - but this was the initial information I was FWD from a good friend who is leading this pursuit in bigger Saab wheels... I am the go-between and willing to help.18/19 inch super aero wheels..

This is the primary feeler thread - just to gauge any interests. Everything is very rough in concept right now - but all is 100% doable. If weight isn't as critical as price - adjustments can be made.
Yes - VERY light - thus the heavy price
I will inquire on the less priced heavier wheel options. I too do not like anything larger then 17" personally.
Now that car right there is sexy.It doesn't have to be a dream - if we have enough people (50) who want the same wheel - they can be made!
