Default Want a new steering wheel - any suggestions?
I've been spending money on my car, to quote my wife, "like a drunken sailor in a whorehouse on payday". So why not continue? I want a new steering wheel. Not a 930s fan. Was thinking Momo Prototipo or Retro:

but the Ferrari thread sot me thinking about Nardis:

Any other suggestions?

I have a Prototipo on the T and have found it very comfortable. Of course, it looks retro cool, too.

I have a Nardi on my 65 Cobra. Wasn't cheap but worth every penny. Im a sailor so I have an excuse, lol. Its is very nice and I love it. The leather is perforated and feels unbelievable. Mine is a 350 or 380 with red stitching. If you are contemplating I would gladly lend it to you to get a feel if you want.

I opted for a OMP on my car. I dig it.

When tracking the suede or alcantra option is really nice for grip.

I like the first one. IMO the silver center doesn't look right.
