Looks good. I remember you telling me about the one in the 808 when I posted pics of my MOMO one. Where did you get your hub from? Mine's a generic ebay one, but the quality is nice and it was around $10 if I remember correctly. Anywho, awesome wheel.

ordered the hub the same time i did the wheel. when jegs emailed the invoice i replied back that it didn't have the hub on it and their reply was about the wait on the hub. i guess i could see if i can get the hub local and if so, cancel that order with jegs.

thanx ray. it's like an inch smaller in dia than the stock one, and probably stands bout half inch closer due to the piece that the wheel actually bolts to by comparison. but outside of that i love it. feels bout the same as i remember it did in the 808. and even with the smaller dia, there's no noticeable difference in steering effort.
