  • Steering Wheels opinions

    I would like to get a new steering wheel, but I am having some trouble deciding which one I really want. I definitely need one with at least 2 buttons on it, one for nitrous and one for purge. There are a few Momo wheels out there, but I cannot bring myself to put Momo in a GM. The wheels listed below are Sparco, which is a little better. Any other suggestions would be great. Thanks!

    I have a link to pics of my car if that would help your decisions at all. Thanks again!

    Forgot to mention, the one with the black center is my personal preference.

      Either 2 or 3 would look great. Is it difficult to disable the airbag and replace the steering wheel with a better one - similar to the ones you chose?

      I personally don't like flatbottom steering wheels myself. Heck, look at some of the grant wheels - they actually are inexpensive and look nice [img]smile.gif[/img]

        I get very good deals on the wheels pictured so the pricing isn't really an issue. I have had my airbags disabled for over a year now so that doesn't come into play either. Thanks for the input.

              you just have no more air bag in the car. How hard is it to disable the airbag light and crap so the car doesn't tweek out on me?

                Well, I wouldn't go with the red (#3) since you car is a dark maroon/wine/purple.. the silver (#1) may clash with your carbon fiber/yellow interior, so I say go with the Black (#2) unless you can find one with a yellow center. I'd go with yellow, if at all possible, since that is what your accents are.

                Nice ride BTW.

                  Steve, thanks first off.
                  I think that the yellow center would be a little much. I definitely like the black center though. I like the Momo wheels, but I dunno how it would fit in a F-body. May be a little ricey. Anyhow, I think the black one is gonna be the one.

                    Ordered the one with the black center today. Will hopefully be here by Friday. When I install it, I will take pics and post.

                      No problem. Considering your interior highlights, I don't think a black wheel with a yellow highlight would be too much. I do think the black is a good pick give your choices. If all else fails, once you get some pics, we can photoshop it and see how it looks. You can always paint it yellow if you want ;)

                        if i were you..i'd keep the factory steering wheel.. when my brother wrecked his formula.. its the airbag that saved his life..

                        when we went to the junk yard.. we couldnt even find the car, cause it was so shaddered.

                        i guess thats what a head on collision to a light post at 70mph will do to a fiberglass car. scary
