    Dont like it to be honest...

    But then again... im not a fan of aftermarket steering wheels.....

    I prefer airbags (although i think if i had an older car i'd wanna change it... as the standard Clio steering wheels like Lowe's car would have had are an awful design!!!)

    I can vouch for that - better suited to a boat!

    I managed to get my momo wheel for £40 delivered as it was a previous years line, it's a dished 'rally-style' martini racing wheel that was suede but after a few years use has turned into a sort of sweaty leather (mmm nice!)

    Lowe out of interest what model is your wheel and do you want to sell it?

    BS, I came off the throttle (and therefore off boost) cos I was catching your wheelspinning POS hence why I lost the rear end.

    Anyway back on topic, that Sparco wheel is only 285mm which is too small.

    Back to square one..

    Yeah I'll be looking to get shot of it once I've sorted a suitable replacement.

    A520 Yok's on the front mate and I got them free with a set of wheels I bought . Just face it you can't drive! A bad worksman always blames his tools, lol! What he has neglected to say is that this is the second 'D' shaped wheel he has bought , should have bought a proper one in the first place .

    Lowe =

    really!

    Actually the first D shape wheel was £500 and came with a free R5GTT.

    Least this "poor tool" gets you to the mechanics and back
