One easy way to test is if you drive over a very small pot hole. If the rim bends, it's a Genuine Viggen rim. If it doesn't bend, it's aftermarket. A more practical approach.... the only aftermarket rim that looks like the Viggen rim is called the MODA R-1 I'd look and see if you can find anything that identifies the rims as those. I don't know who made the OEM Viggen rims; Ronal made a lot of SAAB rims, but I don't think they made those. The Viggen rims have a unique, very metallic paint, which most refurbishers find hard to match. If your wheels look very silvery, they are probably original. If not, they are either originals that were refinished in the wrong color, or aftermarket. That's the best I can do; a Viggen expert may be able to do better.
