These two are from a 89 and 87 I beleive. Someone I know got a grant and gave me his old one. I like the one thats on my car right now because of the grip and where you can place you hand when driveing. The 87 I thought it was cool at first but I guess I'm getting use to mine. What do you think any opinion at all¿

first, much better looking!

 

Defintely the 1st!! Looks like the ones that came in the Formulas.

 

the first looks much better.

 

Guess I'm the only one that likes the 2nd style. The first one looks amazingly cheap to me. That wheel was in Grand Ams, Sunbirds, etc. The 2nd one was a firebird exclusive, and to me has a timeless classic design.

This one is more like it. The only problem is this is the on my freind already has and I dont want to look like some kind of poser or something by putting the same one on my car. What do you think of the crome one instead of grey?

I think that Grant looks cheap. Any wheel available in Pep Boys looks cheap to me. I've got a Grant GT that came with my Sport Coupe, and it's fairly comfortable, but nowhere near as nice as leather, and it looks like a plastic toy.

I've got to agree with Jim... I like the second wheel better, too. There's just something about the first that doesn't look right.

I've got a leather Grant wheel on my IROC and I like it

I personally like the first one better...since...thats what I have on mine. The second one is what my car came with. It is ok, but It looed cheep to me. I liked the second one better, so i found one in a junk yard paid $25 & ran.

I am now in the process of taking the steeringwheel controls from a Grandprix/Boneville & adapting them to my Kenwood. It will work... So I am sticking with style 1.

By the way the Grandprix/Boneville and firebird steering wheels are slightly different & the controls will not fit into the firebird wheel.

number 2 all the way one looks like a cheap POS 4 door plastic piece of crap.

This is my wheel. It's a grant, and it was pricey but it looks sweet, the design matches my wheels real nice.

 

Does anyone have a pic of a grant wheel with the billet instalation adapter? I have the normal black one right now but the shiny chrome would look sweet, at least I think so. I also want this horn button to go with it (none right now, looks like crap).
