I've got quite the assortment of wheels I'm looking at purchasing, and I need your help in doing so. I'm doing a black/red accent theme in the interior, so that's why most of half have red in them. Thanks for your help!

Wheel #1


Wheel #2


Wheel #3


Wheel #4


Wheel #5


Wheel #6


Wheel #7


Wheel #8

I have #7 in my car and the top red is sun faded to almost white.

when new,

Ha! Well I guess #7's out! LoL looks good new though!

#6 might do it too. If you have a sunshade in your windshield or park in the shade or a garage, then you shouldn't have too much of an issue with fading.
My car is parked outside in the sun most days.

I think they're all ugly except 3 and 4.

I think that wheel 8 is schnazzy. Especially if it works with your red/black scheme and hopefully it won't fade sense the red is on the bottom. I need to replace mine too some day.. the stock one is starting to fall apart at 12 o'clock.

#1.

I like #1, where did you find it? Which one did you end up getting and did you need a kit to install it if so, which one?

Personally, I like the Original Leather Wrapped Steering wheel that came from GM.

If your Original Steering Wheel is worn, here is a great resource that will restore your Original steering wheel back to Original:

I bought a "new to me" recovered steering wheel from Hawks Thirdgen Parts, for my 1989 Camaro Iroc-Z to replace the #7 one, that the PO put in, due to the original one "oozzing brown goo" whenever he squeezed it!!!

The original one always looks better IMO, unless it's Airbag equipped!!!

A few words of advice when getting an original 1985-1989 Iroc-Z steering wheel from Hawks, make sure that you either keep the plastic collar from the old wheel if you send them a core, or that you specify that you need the plastic collar, if you don't send them a core, this plastic collar is riveted to the steering wheel!!

If you need a plastic collar, and you can't find one from a Camaro, try looking at 1985-1989 Chevy Blazer S-10's, and 1985-1989 GMC Jimmy's with the YC1, YC2, and YC3 steering wheels!! The plastic collars are the same as the Camaro one's!!!



P.S. The part number for the plastic collar is 17980343, look for this on the plastic collar that you find!!

I think that airbag steering wheels are ok. I've been thinking about trying to get one from a 4th gen with radio controls or maybe one from a monte carlo or impala I would think they would look much better then the aftermarket wheels you have picked out.
