Show me your steering wheels/recommendations

After 16 years I'm going to pull off the stock wheel off and go with something smaller primary for looks AND to dial in some extra road feel if possible.

I like the classic 3 spoke look with a thick rim and heard NRG makes a good wheel and adapter that works well also, so thats my start point.

Show me what you got, thanks.

Ok I,ll take that bollicking.

Part of the issue seems to be with the adapters working and looking right as much as the wheel itself.

No complaints with my OMP Corsica. You can get in in either leather or suede. 330 or 350mm.

Hey Carl, my car will be on jack stands getting ready for track season, but you can come look at the steering wheel if you'd like. If you still live in the same place then we're like 2 miles apart.

Just type "Titanium steering wheel bolts" in Ebay or Google or Amazon.

I went with green (not shown in the above pics).
