Replica Wheels

When faced with the option of purchasing a replica Saab wheel, buyers should be aware of the advantages and disadvantages of this decision. Not all replica Saab wheels are equal. When buying a replica Saab wheel please consult a trusted expert wheel vendor.

In most cases a brand new replica Saab wheel will cost as much as the reconditioned OEM Saab rim of the same style. Both reconditioned and replica Saab wheels can be purchased at a fraction of the cost of a brand new Saab wheel from the dealer.

Most replica Saab wheels are created with a mold made from the OEM counterpart. This will ensure that the structure will be visually the same as the factory original Saab wheel. There is some speculation as to whether or not the finish is the same. Paint, powder coat, polishing, chrome, and clear coat is not universal. It is possible that the color may not match the OEM Saab wheel, but it will be very close. A quality replica will have little to no cosmetic areas of concern.

Not all replica Saab rims are cast the same. There is an order of quality in cast wheels. From lowest to highest quality, the casting types are: gravity casting, low-pressure casting, spun-rim form casting and high light technology casting. Several quality companies do make replica Saab wheels to TUV and ISO standards. They are definitely worth buying for everyday street use. However, if the OEM Saab wheel is prone to cracks, the replica rim is sure to have the same issue.

Some replica Saab wheels may be the result in factory overruns. An overrun is when the OEM manufacturer contracts a certain amount of wheels and either more wheels were made or the order was cut short than what the order called for. In either case, the OEM logo is usually stripped from the Saab wheel and it cannot be sold as OEM even though it is the same.

In any case, consult a wheel expert when ordering a replacement Saab wheel. You will need to ensure that the replica Saab wheel was made in the correct size that you need as well as ensure you are buying a quality product. A reputable wheel company is not going to sell substandard wheels.
