Here it is:

It is a 17" wheel and is part number 12 787 995. Most pictures do not do it justice. However, the cover of the accessories catalog makes it look very nice.

I think list price is around $250.

 

OMG! That's dead sexeh!!!

 

they dont look nearly as good in person. i thought the exact thing till i saw them =/


you should check the bsr site. they have some crazy looking 20s on the 9-3. same design but i think they are 3 piece.

 

You might also be talking about the turbine wheels that were an option for the 9-5.

These:

 

Here's mine. They are 17s, not 18s. I like 'em.

 

Hmm, I do like them. The fact that they are 17's makes them even more attractive to me... I'm trying to move to the VA/DC area since I am graduating in 2 weeks, but I have ot find the job first. If I end up having to take something in Ohio for a bit, I'm still going to try for the 9-3 - and Ohio roads kill anything with no sidewall.

Thanks for the pics... they are one of those wheels that has to grow on me, but for some reason think would look awesome with Fusion Blue.

I also like the Euro 18's that were on a member - Finklejag's car... but the above reasoning put me off (and cost).

... Haven't even gotten the damn thing yet and I am already wanting to mod it.

Those are sexy, too... I kinda like the other ones better on the 9-3 though.

My car, catalogue body kit + after market wheels.... aftermarket wheels FTW :cheesy:

 

The problem with the turbine wheels is that they are hard to clean. I have the standard 16" wheels that came on my Arc and hate them because it is a pain to get betwene the spokes. I want some like soggy has or just a plain 5 spoke. Of course it will never happen because I would rather spend my money on bike parts.

 

They're actually not all that hard to clean, just more time consuming than, say, the standard 5-spoke 17" wheels that come with the sport package. The EBC Green Stuff pads help quite a bit too on keeping the brake dust down.
