New wheels on the Saab - Lame or Game??
I stumbled across a set of 19" Audi A5 wheels on Craigslist for a great price, so I picked them up with intentions of reselling them on ebay. Once I got the wheels home I figured I'd see if they'd fit on the Saab. I was shocked that the offset, PDC, and hub diameter all fit. That's just crazy. Anyway, here's some night shots of them on the car. I may run them for a few days for the hell of it.
I think they are too large for the car personally, but I'm old.

I like them, though I would say you need to be a bit lower... now I know you probably intend for that car to be a simple commuter but hey, you've taken the first step to modify it, why not complete the aesthetics with some Eibachs which shouldn't kill the ride and get it sitting pretty?
Here's the last I'll post on the subject. I just wanted to get some day shots posted for the heck of it.

Due to the supportive comments, I've decided to keep them for a while. I've ordered 1.5mm hub rings and some variation bolts due to the 2mm difference in PCD. Also had to order 2 new tires, since two of them were toast. I should be driving on them "safely" next week.
As for the brand/model, they are OEM wheels from the 2010 Audi A5.

Edit: at least back in 2010?
