When looking for wheels I found there are a very few aftermarket rims that carry the 5x110 bolt pattern already stamped in the rim. Because after searching into it only Saab and Saturn cars have the 110 perhaps one other make model. Most aftermarket rims are stamped with 5 x 112,114,115, to 120. Only rims I found that have the 5x110 already stamped (or drilled) were 13" to 17" rims dressed in hideous chrome. Lexani doesn't make a rim or any other reputable manufacture like Momo, Oz Racing, you name it in a 5x110 when I asked why' Lexani told me they never sell and were more than happy to stamp in a 5 x 110 in any rim they carry for the car. All of their rims are casted with-out a bolt pattern and later set and drilled in.
I was looking for a 22" rim with a 20 series tire to make the over all height of the wheel the same as the oem Saab rim and tire height but I couldn't find a supplier for the 20 series tire over on the east coast. so moved it to a 20" with a 30 series tire which tire rack has in stock ready to ship to my door.
After looking at over 1000 rims I settled on the current one on the car and informed Lexani, The Rim was already made in warehoused without a bolt pattern, I told them of the selection, they grabbed 4 blank rims and stamped them with the 5x110 pattern and sent them out.
Oz racing and Momo also do the same thing but it was the style Lexani had that was the winner for me, And it seems its a winner for my 9-3 stalker.
