yea, but you're always going to run into that problem when using an aftermarket steering wheel.

I believe you should do whatever you want.

Personally, I wouldn't put an aftermarket steering wheel on unless my car was solely for the track.

The one you picked out looks nice, and the quick release feature is cool. If you like it, I say get it. I was just breaking your ***** a little bit... lol =D

That thing looks like a vintage 1970s steering wheel off a bumper car. Too big too. It does not match the z at all. Why are so many putting this style of wheel on their cars? It would work with an old Shelby Cobra but not with a modern car.

Thank God, I was afraid I was the only who felt that way about that wheel.

But hey I didn't say anything. You said it much more like Miss Manners would have said it:-P I would have been a tad more blunt.

too big? it's 350mm, the stock steering wheel is actually 360mm. i can understand you may not like the style though. to each their own.

imho, dont get the deep corn or the offset wheel. it may be too far to reach the stalks for the blinker or thw wiper. i personally like the top secret wheel myself.
