.. and if we were able to ge4t a look at the data Saab has on this, we could likey prove that the Viggen Wheels ar eindeed, not designedd and/or manufactured well. It appears from the conversations on the Saabnet, that almost everyone here that hasd a Viggen has gone through the bent wheel saga. I have just been informed by my dealer that I have two bent rims.
Are the wheels defective? Can't say. I think that the wheel are not as strong as they should/could be and that this is due to improper design from the ground up. There are tons of low profile wheel tire applications out there, but I don't see the incidence of bent rims in other forums like the Viggen is plagued with.
I have hit a few potholes, but I don not see where they could have been hard enough hits to bend the wheels.
I do not get the feeling from my dealer that they are concerned about my impressions or needs.
