Hi,

 

I have a damaged rim on my Saab 9.5, 2001 model. Hit a kerb and had a puncture damaging the rim in the process. Any advice on options available on replacement of the rim? Tyre size is 215/55/16 Yokohama ASdb 500. TIA. Regards.

you can either change all or change 1 pc. saab rims are not that common, so u may have to go back to trans euro to get the 1 piece.

 

check with E36 or Saaber....

Gong Xi Fa Chai to all and many thanks for the advice . The tyres appear to okay but would need to be further checked. The rim looks like it may have to be replaced; part of it is flattened. The "handy work" of the wife [lipsrsealed] . Will check out any way. Don't know Bernard but could search him out.

Have browsed the forum and heard of AMK Ave 10 Blk 4002. What you folks think?
