Thanks Rick. Is that a racing thing? If it is, I get it.

Yup! For racing mostly but simplest explanation is keep your eyes on the line your driving and in your peripheral you see the stripe. Gives a reference for straight wheel so in corner slides helps with oversteer. You know wheel position without directly looking at it. Many of the fancy ones now have led bars built into them for tac speed or temp etc.

Looks cool. I like they have options to make it all leather or all suede and remove the carbon fiber. I did not see any option to do a leather suede combo though to compliment my tremor seats.

Corner slides?! Oversteer?! No one told me we could do all that!

Hey Rick, stay safe with that nor’easter bomb cyclone coming in.

That would be a super nice feature. Prices have went up a little, starting price 775 now.

When i was adding one to cart they have a slight sale, took $77 off the price.
Its at least something.

That should be the price if you do it without the core exchange.

That steering wheel is very cool but I can do a lot of mods with that much money. Can you install them yourself? NO NO NO more mods Mark.

 

[Gsxrdoug]

Yes you can install yourself, not very hard, just make sure you leave your battery disconnected for at least 15 minutes, you have to unplug your AIRBAG, don't want to pop that thing off.

I just received my Carbon Fiber Steering Wheel from SoCal Garage Works. I think the quality is great. You choose all of the materials and design. On their site, they start at $675

Damnit! The forum strikes again. Added to list.
