Need help finding some alloys

TheCrow · 15 Nov 2008 at 22:35

Hey,

Not for me, but for my dad. His alloys have de-formed (saab say due to poor uk road conditions and are not willing to replace them) So he is looking to replace them with OEM or as close as ha can get to the original (he's not one for changing things

)

I have looked about but cant seem to find anything. Its a Saab 93 2003 - 16" x 6.5" and here is what we are trying to match:

Any help would be great!

Cheers

Something to do with using a softer alloy and that uk roads have too many pot-holes that damages this softer alloy. Ether they are well aware of this problem and have told all dealers to refuse and deny it, or its a genuine stance, though i dont know how it can be legal to sell a car in the UK that isnt suitable for the UK.

Ye they really arent as good as they try to make out.

Anyway, for all you daytime people, any ideas/websites/etc?

If cant get a decent price for oem looking ones then maybe if you could find some that look good and i can see what he thinks?

cheers
