Hey all,
I realise that's a bit of a rubbish/generic title so apologies.
I currently have a Momo Corse 350mm leather wheel, which I really like! But it's very worn and really needs seeing to.
I looked at getting a re-trim but it would be as costly to just buy a new wheel.
So, anyone have a wheel they think is particularly good? Also, does anyone have experience with the ebay fakes for circa £50?
Thaaaaanks

Don't get a eBay fake. Prob be able to bend it in half. Momo, sparco, omp.
I'm looking at getting a reverie full carbon steering wheel. 100% carbon fibre construction. 300 grams.

Re: Best Steering Wheel?
there is no "best" in terms of looks, its all down to personal taste however quality wise there's pretty much nothing that can compete with a genuine Nardi or Personal (same manufacturer)
I've got a 330mm Nardi deep corn, black perf leather with red stitching - it was about £235 from driftworks, and worth every penny
the Personal range start at around £150, which is nothing for a quality product

Re: Best Steering Wheel?
I have the same but deep corn 350mm. Very good quality.
Re: Best Steering Wheel?
Don't buy a fake, my MX5 came with one fitted and you could literally bend the steering wheel while you were turning
I've had OMP's - very nice wheels, and also Momo which aren't bad.
Would love to try a Personal Grinta - they're a lovely looking wheel!

Re: Best Steering Wheel?
Thanks for all the replies people.
Rob that wheel is gorgeous! Really caught my eye.
Red that wheel is ridiculous! In a good way obviously
Thanks for sharing experience Cal, appreciate it.
Anyone have experience using the Royal steering wheel re-trimmers? Heard good things but they're at least £120.

Re: Best Steering Wheel?
I really like wood steering wheels. I dunno if this particular one would look out of place in an SW20 but I think I'd like one anyway:
Re: Best Steering Wheel?
I always look out for second hand Momo wheels. I picked one up here for $100nzd a 320mm Momo Corse wheel. I love it.

280mm in an MR2?!
I run a 330mm in my MX5 and it's perfect, but 280mm is a LOT smaller!

Had one on the Supra, one of my favourite steering wheels. I'd snap it up if you can get it for a decent price, they are getting rarer (and more expensive) now since they were discontinued a few years ago.

Re: Best Steering Wheel?
I didnt bother with it but maybe i should have asked him how much he wants for it.
I could always pick it up for someone else if they wanted it.
I will enquire.
