I am looking to find the product number for my 17 inch 10-spoke alloys as I need to try and find a replacement for one corner. Please check the attached picture (sorry about the quality).



I understand that they are SAAB alloys rather than third party and would have been fitted as an option when the car was first purchased in late 1999. The spokes have a curved contour rather than the flat appearance of more recent 10-spoke alloys from SAAB.

Anyone have any ideas on the product id or where I could source a second-hand replacement (I regularly check ebay but as yet have had no success)?

Many thanks

Hi and welcome to Saab Central. If you whip the wheel off the part number for your alloys will be stamped on the inside.

I think its the Qualifier wheel Saab part no 40-800001208, I belive they are no longer avilable. I think these wheels were manufactured by Rimstock/100+.

Thanks Wessy, looks like we have a match - what do you mean by Qualifier (excuse the ignorance), is it a third-party manufacturer supplied through SAAB as an 'authorised' part?

The wheel was called the "qualifier", ther was also 2 additional 17" wheels offered call the "motorsport" and i cant remember the 3rd(the daytona??).

As you said the wheels were sourced from UK(rimstock/100+ I think), these were a UK accessory only.
