Wheel replacement
When replacing wheels due, for example, to damage,
make sure the replacement wheels match the specifi-
cations of the wheels that are fitted as standard equip-
ment. Replacement wheels are available from Saab
dealers.
Use only those wheels that are specified for
your vehicle. Wheels not meeting specifica-
tions could interfere with brake caliper opera-
tion and may cause the tires to rub against the
wheel well housing during turns. The resulting
loss of vehicle control could lead to an acci-
dent.
NOTE
When any of the wheels is removed and replaced
for tire rotation or to change a flat tire, always
check the tightness of the wheel nuts after driving
approximately 600 miles (1,000 km). If any nut is
loose, tighten it to the specified torque.
Aluminum wheels
Aluminum wheels can be scratched and damaged
easily. Handle them carefully to maintain their appear-
ance, performance, and safety.

When any of the wheels is removed and replaced
for tire rotation or to change a flat, always check the
tightness of the wheel nuts after driving approximately
600 miles (1,000 km). If any nut is loose, tighten it to
the specified torque.
!
Never apply oil to the threaded parts, wheel nuts, or
tapered surface of the wheel.
!
Never let the wheel rub against sharp protrusions or
curbs.
!
Be sure to fit tire chains on uniformly and completely
around the tire, otherwise the chains may scratch the
wheel.
!
When wheel nuts, balance weights, or the center
cap is replaced, be sure to replace them with genuine
Saab parts designed for aluminum wheels.
