Re: Aftermarket steering wheels , Lets see them

Do any of these wheels have the fingergrip indentions on them, on the backside? I really would like to find a real leather wheel that has that.

Mine doesn't. Same texture as the rest of the wheel.

Re: Aftermarket steering wheels , Lets see them

I've got a Grant Evolution. It's okay. A little bit too small IMO, feels kinda weird when you go from daily driving a car with a big wheel.

Re: Aftermarket steering wheels , Lets see them

Its a Grant Evolution GT... part number is 1080 I believe. It seems to have a nice thick outer ring, with nice looking material. Its rather pricey. But can be found on ebay for fairly cheap sometimes.

Its a smaller diameter than stock, but Ive become accustomed to those beacuse my 87 is small, and my Jeep is small.

And I will be transferring my firebird horn button that I made over to it. Thats for sure!

EDIT: Here is the link to it on the grant site. Notice the MSRP... Ive seen it at summit for $199... And on ebay for $99... Yes its expensive. But what part of your car do you touch the most while driving? Thats why i want a nice wheel...and why I got a nice shifter ball.
