That's a two piece wheel - a new rim can be installed if the center piece is undamaged. I think the work has to be done by BBS. Unlike many poser wheels, you actually have a bunch of titanium fasteners holding the two parts together. If the center forging is damaged you ought to scrap the wheel.
I read the BBS warranty a while back. I seem to recall that if BBS changes the rim, you will retain your wheel warranty - I am not sure if the aftermarket companies can do more than straighten and re-machine it.
Tire Rack sells these wheels. They are not shown on the page with other Saab wheels, but they do carry them. If I recall correctly, they are less than US$500 each. How much through your Saab dealer?
