Iconic Saab Design

I recently did a small post on Instagram about the Saab ALU36 wheels - in my opinion, Saab designed some of the most beautiful OE wheels ever produced, their iconic 3 spoke structure is a key feature in many of their designs, from the original 900 Aeros to the Turbo X - all had the same 3 spoke structure.

I’ve long admired the purity of the ALU36 wheels, and again, with the same 3 spoke design, only double. They came standard on the Saab 9-3 HOT Aeros, and were also optional on the Saab 9-5 model range, suiting both equally well.

I love their sculptural form, the way they help elevate the car’s intrinsic beauty, the subtle concave surface drawing the eye to the Saab identity at its core. I never fail to be impressed by Saab design, a true masterclass in refinement and simplicity.

Of course, many folk agreed with me and also suggested other, equally stunning Saab wheel designs, but what I adore most, is to see how people put their own mark on the same wheels. I received messages from a number of people, but 2 stood out, and wanted to share their wonderful take on the ALU36 wheels for others to be inspired by.
