I’m looking for a 16" 5-spoke wheel for my 2000 Saab 9-3.  My right
front wheel is warped and I need a replacement.  If anyone has one or
knows of a source for a good one please let me know.   Thanks.

Jerry,

You probably have one of those 9-3 Viggen "Bend-O-Rims", right????

No, this is a 2000 9-3 SE model (convertible). The wheels are
aluminum, 5-Spoke and also came on the 9-5.
Here’s a link to a photo of the car:

Graham,

The best I've ever heard of is a company called "RIM PRO", they do TONS of Saab wheels, specifically the 9-3 Viggen rims.

There's places that claim they can fix damaged alloy wheels, might be worth
looking into that.

Good call! I had one of my 15" Aero rims done 10 years & 100,000km ago -
still going strong. That was in Aus though so my dealer recommendation
isn't worth jack to you! Suggest you talk to a local tyre &  wheel place
that handles plenty of imports. Cheers
