So, I bet many people love these wheels (they're growing on me) and others despise them. I found these pics of BBS's swapped on... what do you guys think? http://www.trollhattansaab.net/archives/2007/09/dissatisfied-with-the-wheels.html

I like the Last set of BBS's a lot, although I'm not even a fan of BBS wheels, in general (the styling at least).

I think we should all start brainstorming for names for new wheels. I thought maybe Turbo-x wheels? Turbo wheels? I think so far Ima use 'x wheels'. The X wheels!!

X wheels for the WHO!

def better x1,000,000 then the vikings.... but i donno, i'll have to see it on the actual car before i'll make my final judgement, i think i'd much rather have a set of bbs rims... i def. don't think they are played out, they are very high quality, lightweight (not saying they are the lightest but htey are light) and look very sporty/classy.

Whatever you say guys. Just because Saab makes cool cars doesn't mean they can (or should) make ugly rims - and they have made a lot of them over the years ;). Those wheels don't match the car.

Oh yeah, don't you all love how the door handle is the same one used on every other piece of junk Chevrolet? What was the matter with the door handles they had - that's what I want to know.

They aren't that bad. I like Saab's unusual or "different" wheels.

There are lots of nice Saab wheels; 3 spoke Aeros, 3 spoke Klingons, the two double 3 spoke styles, 5 spoke viggen, bbs, a lot of the newer catalog options, etc.

the Aero x concept wheels are sweet

vikings aren't that bad

these evos are hot

i just think wierd wheels go with the odd lines of a saab. they would look like hell on any other car the same way most aftermarket wheels look terrible on a saab. distinctive wheels for a distinctive car.

everything. your name, your social, your age, your height, your wieght, where you were born, your hobbies, your schooling, your style of dress....pretty much everything.



Saab wheels do suck. they are quirky, but pee-wee herman is quirky and he's just wierd (I'll hold back on that other term as to not offend a certian forum member:topher).

theres a reason the split-spoke euro wheels are played out, its because they are the nicest looking wheels of all time in the whole entire universe.
