I thought the question needed it's own subject line to get a response.
I'll be looking to replace the Klingon wheels with something else. The BBS RK II is an obvious choice but I think the 9-3 Twin Aeros are pretty awesome looking and may be another choice for me.
I've read on the board that some have seen 9-5 Aeros rolling with them.
The stock 9-5 Aero wheels are 17x7 with 49mm offset (?).
Anybody know the specs are the Twin Aeros? I wonder why the Saab catalog only specificies these wheels for the 9-3s? Also will the different offset of the Twin Aeros have a noticeable effect on the handling?
The BBS's have a 35mm offset so as someone posted, 35mm to 49mm range seem acceptable but I'm not a suspension engineer so what do I know.
Although I used to be a powertrain engineer in my former life. :)
