1981 Saab 900 Wheel Fitment Guide — What Works & What to Avoid
Your 1981 Saab 900 uses a 4x114.3 bolt pattern shared across Base, S, and Turbo models. The factory wheel is a 15x5.5 with 33mm offset. You can go up to 17 inches, with compatible sizes including 15x5 through 15x7, plus 16x5.5, 16x6.5, 16x7, and 17x7. Square setups work perfectly on this non-staggered application.
Only wheels with a 4x114.3 bolt pattern will fit your 900. The hub-centric bore measures 71.6mm; if your wheel's center bore exceeds this, use hub-centric rings to ensure proper seating. Aggressive offsets or widths beyond what's listed risk contact with fenders and suspension components, so stick to the compatible sizes we've verified.
Every wheel we offer for your Saab bolts on securely and ships free to the lower 48 states. Work Wheels, Enkei, SSR Wheels, and Rotiform all have options in stock and ready to ship.
