Cheap HKS Steering Wheel - Any Good?
So, yeah, I'm sick of the stock steering wheel in my 7... it belongs on a yacht or an Abrams or something and I was looking at getting a Momo Jet steering wheel (350mm). But I just saw this HKS steering wheel for something like 30 dollars (EDIT: Correction - 19 dollars, buy it now, 18 shipping, so more like 40 but still) with shipping - buy it now.
My question is, what's wrong with it? Will it fit my car? Will it break when I turn it? Why so cheap?
What steering wheel would you recommend?
Here's the link: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/UNIVE...03242888QQrdZ1
Thanks,

Truth is, though, I don't care what brand it is as long as it's smaller than stock and feels good around the curves.

illegal yes, but they do it all the time on e-bay. its much harder to catch someone whoes product its made out of the country and sold over the internet. besides cops have better thinks to do like give speeding tickets.

HKS and cheap do not ever go together, it is a law of physics much like how water and oil do not mix.
Nardi's are nice, I personally like MOMO's and some SPARCO's. just make sure you by an actual wheel and not a knockoff and you will be pleased.

People on Ebay slap names of tuners popular with ricers on generic products all the time. There was a guy a while back looking at a "mazdaspeed" racing bucket. When I looked through his store, there was another identical one with a Nismo logo, and another with a TRD logo.
