$199 for a steering wheel? I can get laid in Tijuana by two hookers at the same time and have pleanty of beer and taxi money to boot for that much $.

But as they say to each their own, buy what you want to. People thought I was nuts to spend $85 on two aluminum full radius 100mm TWM velocity stacks for the REPU.

Some nice advantages to a smaller diameter are quicker steering response; less movement of steering wheel required to turn the steering shaft same distance. And smaller wheel makes it easier to get in and out of the car.

Another very good thing to consider is GRANT sells an anti-theft dealy that lets you remove your steering wheel when you're not using the car. Steel cap snaps on and is locked onto steering column when wheel removed. Very strong lock. Uses the standard 3 hole bolt pattern that typical aftermarket steering wheels use, like Grant and Momo..... summitracing.com sells them.

I have a nardi classic steering wheel on mine. I think it looks nice and it goes well with the rest of the interior.
