May be rare, but damn, that huge embroidered logo is @ss ugly. They really found that neccessary in addition to the two other logos staring you right in the face?

they make a big deal of that embroidered logo - changes with each model.
It might be a little much for me too though. These wheels are supposed to be the best though.

The embroidered logo aside, I've personally gone from Personal to Key!s Racing and the material (buck skin) of the latter does offer more grip with or without gloves. Just another thing this steering wheel has to offer.

Oooo... I have to say, the leather wheel looks niiiice, but yeah, that embroidering really kills the mood, unfortunately.

that's a bad a$$ wheel, but probably a little too flamboyant for the crowd here.

if i didnt have my personal wheel i'd probably pick one of these up, my only gripe with it is the 325mm is a bit small for daily driving duties.

Love it or hate it.

Ok then I hate it. That logo with the two Dallas Cowboy stars reminds me of the Wonder Women TV series from the 70's and her outfit. The wheel itself looks like a Grant from Pep Boys that belongs on a racing go cart.

Ok I'm done.


MOMO!! ****
