Default Steering wheels

What steering wheel do you lads use? Wanting to change mine for something that feels good and has good grip! Me interior is standard so it's tricky finding one to fit the theme well.

Can you post some pictures up please.

Cheers,

Ric.

I do like the look of that wheel and it has been an option just can't decide on either 3-4 spoke or the one you have, isn't your off a s1 or cossie?

I have a 2wd cossy wheel too and really like it, million times better than the standard tosh. Never really liked the 4 spoke wheels tbh.

Also S1 has no centre horn button. Chris 4 Spoke looks great. Really need to save some money for that.

Note to self must dig out them parts to send to you. got the box and the money here for you already.

I have a Sierra 2000e wheel. It's the same as the cossie one but the centre is black with a grey leather wheel:
