Wheels of IntSaab 2012

The choice of another set of wheels for my Saab is constantly running around in my mind. Before IntSaab, there was a large dose of conservativism in it, means genuine Saab wheels only. IntSaab 2012 changed that. Despite of the event itself had as usual much bigger accent on classic Saabs, the newer car owners were much more liberal in wheels choice against from what I've seen before. Well, individualism and Saab are good fitting together.

My current rims are 17" Aero ALU74 5-spoke split (12771524). It seems they are also quite rare.

The new wheel choice is to handle with the highest level of cautiousness to not to destroy the look. So it will take some time to mature before the order. So currently I'm drilling through pictures and forums, when the time allows it. Maybe I will end at genuine Saab wheels again, i don't know.

Wheels

These are my 17" Aero wheels, I like them a lot. Recently they got new shoes - Goodyear Eagle F1 Assymetric 2, with very good reviews. Hopely they hold what they promise. They were selected by Porsche as the default tyre for the current Porsche 911 Carrera 2. Hopely they will hold longer than last years Michelins.
