You never said steel or alloy. But, If I had to guess, it is alloy. There are firms that claim to fix bent alloy rims. I don't trust alloys being bent and then straightened out, but others are happy and apparently safe with straightened alloy rims. You can buy new steel rims from tirerack.com for about $45 each. Alloy rims would vary and a factory Saab replacement would probably be the most expensive. ByteSchlepper wrote: > I had a run-in with a pot-hole yesterday in my 98 900SE and the pothole > won.

If not, any idea how much for a new one?
