I am going t be replacing my instrument gauges with some classic dash gauges this winter. I was going to take my steering wheel off to give me room to work and was considering replacing it with one of these. Any opinions or suggestions? My car has a gray and black interior

FROM LEFT TO RIGHT: Grant Club Sport, Grant Formula, Grant Club Sport 2

 

i have a grey formula gt 3 spoke one for sale. let me know if interested. i believe i have everything but the horn wire (adapter included)

 

Personally I like the Grant #1130 Collector's Edition steering wheel but the Club Sport is a good choice.

 

Out of those three I like the club sport the best, but personally I think the Grant Challenger series looks like it was made for third gens

 

ive got the grant club sport in the car now, but im liking the sport club 2

 

lemans 1070 (I think thats the number)

 

I like the Lemans but I think it would look better in a second generation. I also like the collectors edition but I think it looks too much like a stock wheel ( not aggressive enough). I like the club sport (2) but think it might be a little modern for a third gen ( actually looks like the Momo Mellenium). Keep your opinions comming. I'd love to know other options I just found the above ones and thought they looked pretty good.

 

i have a blue california colors formula gt3 wheel on mine now with matching blue horn button. i might change to the grey one.

These are it.

 

those look too much like the cheap grant wheels everyone and their mother puts on.

 

heres the one im using now

I like this wheel, too, but I prefer a three spoke rather than a four spoke. Good choice, though, that's why they make so many different ones, no two people like the same thing.

I toyed with the idea of a blue one or even a dark gray steering wheel, but my dash is all black and the seats and carpets are gray so I think introducing a third color wouldn't fit.

 

Agreed. I've got an 1130 in my Camaro and I like it. Once I upgraded the horn button & ring to an aluminum piece to match the spokes it made the wheel look like a nice quality piece. Most of the grant stuff looks and feels like cheap crap, but their Collectors stuff isn't bad.

 

If i ever change wheels, im going with the 1130. the club sport does flow nicely with a stock dash though.

 

I have the 1130 in transit now and the Red Bow Tie center cap. Can I ask what adaptor kit you used and what all did you need to remove to get the Grant to fit? I have a steering wheel puller, am I going to use it? As for Grant stuff looking cheap, I found a wheel from Billet Specialties but it was nearly 3 bills. My wallet is not that thick.

 

I am interested in that wheel do you still have it for sale

 

yes i still have it. ill get pics

 

 

can you pm me with a price

 

Here is my new Grant #1130 with the polished aluminum installation kit #5196-1. I like it. This wheel is about an inch smaller in diameter than the stock wheel which makes a lot of difference for a tall guy like me even with tilt wheel.

 

your steering wheel looks great, can i ask where you bought it? thank you.

 

I read another thread and saw where one person had problems with the vynil/leather fading quickly. Anyone had any similar problems??

 

ive had mine on for a few years now and the vinyl still looks new. this pic was taken about a month ago

 

Tank -

I ordered the 1130 wheel and they said the 5196-1 wouldn't fit that wheel, that it was for the grant signature series wheel? But I like what you did. Does the 5196-1 fit the 1130 wheel anyhow?

thank you,
MBH

 

Winner's Circle, Joliet, Illinois. I think it was ~$195.00 for the wheel and the install kit. Took about ten minutes to do.

 

Thank you.

 

The Grant carbon fibre wheel is nice. Great feel.

 

Lemans 1070....

 

Any one notice in this months issue December 2011 of Popular Hot Rodding, on page 33 is one sweet looking '66 Chevelle sporting what looks to be a Grant 1131 steering wheel with a Bow Tie logo center cap?
