Im in the proces of redoing my 240's interior and to me the stearing wheal and the seats are the most important part of the interior becouse you spen most of your time useing both while driveing. With this said i am looking for what is out there to use. I dont really want a sparco , momo or a cheach and chong chain stearing wheal becouse these have all been played out. Here are some of my favorits so you can get an idea of what im looking for.personalnardikey raceing http://www.fabulous.co.jp/prod...tense/Sorry i couldnt get ne picks of the fabulous wheal.Out of all of them the Fabulous intence wheels are my favorite but I still want to know what else is out there

Deep Corn Rally Nardi FTMFW.Fabulous, well, jeez, the name just sounds gay to me, LOL...

Get the leather one... the valour one look tempting, but don't do it, you'll regret it down the lines (they end up looking like sh*t after long time use). Also, the Nismo wheels look dope too, but only the valour ones =/

Fabulous is HOT!!! HOT HOT HOT!

Nardi is always a good choice. It's up to personal tastes on this one.

What adrian said. Unless your car is purely for show, go with leather over suede or velour or whatever. If it's a showcar sometimes, but also a DD, then get both, and use the suede one for shows only.

I say picture #1, but I'm with Adrian. I have a suede wheel in my Maxima, and where my hand is always at, looks like crap.

I'd rock the R31 wheels if I was going for a retro/old school look. I bet that steering wheel is worth more than $75...

I like the grips at 10 and 2 on the Personal wheel...

its not baller at all, which is why i said its fine for what i need, which is something a bit smaller than stock, just a little racy lookin, that i can steer with.

i guess i would have had to say i have a hula hoop for a steering wheel or something to achieve my desired affect.

just figured id make a couple people laugh that someone considered Grant to be "baller".

Grant's fine, IMO (I prefer smaller wheels to the school-bus style drifter wheels), but the OP was looking for help finding something "baller".

yeah, initially i wanted a smaller diameter, simply for efficiency of movement. I may get a somewhat bigger one soon, with a deep dish to it. that or a spacer to bring the wheel closer. more likely the latter.

I personally rock a Nardi 330mm sport rally deep corn leather with red stitching for daily driving and have a the suede version for my track days because it has tons of grip.
