Turbo X Wheels for sale at Speedparts

I’m not sure if this is just one set, or an ongoing thing, but Speedparts in Sweden have a set of Saab Turbo X wheels for sale. (I think it’s just the one set, probably due to a project)

They’re 18 inches in diameter and shod with 235/45 Pirelli Zeros. Absolutely brilliant!!

I wonder how they’d look on a Viggen????

In other Speedparts related news……well, sort of…..

PA Johansson builds incredible drag cars out of Saabs. I’ve featured his work before (here, and here, for example) and actually listened to a seminar he presented at the Saab Festival last year. The build story on these cars is quite amazing.

PA recently took the 2008 version of his car out for a run for this first time this summer. Here’s one way to reduce weight - blow the boot off the car!! I’m not sure it’d help the aerodynamics too much, though.

Here’s a video of the day’s events. It’s straight line grunt and it’s not for everyone, but there certainly is some awesome Saab power on display here.

Thanks Mats!
