Does anyone fancy my steering wheel?

ClassicAU · 17-10-2006, 08:52 AM

Hi everyone, i am just looking to see if there is any interest out there for the steeringwheel if have on my car at the moment? I ask this because if i do get someone to buy it off me it will make it alot easier for me to purchase a new momo wheel. Below is the link to the for sale thread.

I am not so sure if i should even bother changing it now? I mean, yeah the Momo wheel is awesome, but at least my wheel isnt plain. What does anyone else think?

HLC · 17-10-2006, 04:24 PM

i took that wheel off on my car and put a momo on. its awesome. but i doubt you will get 100+

ClassicAU · 17-10-2006, 04:44 PM

so you reccon the Momo wheels is a lot better than the wheel i have now? Its full leather surround isnt it, not just the blue bits? it also looks thicker, is that right? i'm just trying to convince myself to get one! :P

the momo wheel is fully leather.

and is actually THINNER than the standard wheel. it is also solid instead of a little squishy like the standard wheel. its pretty comfortable...

Do it. They're awesome. I paid $300 for a grey/black momo, and I'd do it again. I justified it to myself by the thought that it's one part of the car that I'm holding every day, might as well be comfortable. Makes the whole thing feel much sportier. What colour are you thinking? Has anyone put one of these on yet?

I reckon they look pretty sweet, but haven't laid hands on one. I was going to get one if I couldn't find a grey/black momo, since red or blue wouldn't really suit my car.

Yes, me.

My car is Barossa Red and none of the coloured momos suit it.

I grabbed one of these of ebay for around $120 and really like it. The silver inserts work in with the bf alloy pedals, silver car phone and other silver/chrome bits in my Ghia.

a momo wheel is more so designed to provide comfortable grooves for your hand. I have found my momo wheels feel and match my hand really well. unlike a plain wheel where control of the wheel is dependant on how much pressure u apply to hold the wheel (i hope that makes sense one way or another). either way its comfort thing

This is the AU momo wheel I just fitted to my EF. Its the same diameter as the standard wheel bit the grip is much thicker. I would have preferred something all black but this one suits the rest of my interior pretty well. Took all of ten minutes to fit.

XR6Stu · 17-10-2006, 10:15 PM

Thats a pretty awesome wheel. Would suit my car very nice! Where from n how much?

If you meant the one with the silver inserts, do an ebay search for 'au wheel' and check in the ebay stores, it's called ratglobal or something. $200 buy-it-now price.

JeffAU1 · 18-10-2006, 03:04 PM

I would say they would send it Monday, but you could always ask them

JeffAU1 · 18-10-2006, 04:30 PM

Cool, its just not worth hoping that you gonna get it saturday morning and then being all dissapointed as you got it AFTER the weekend. That just kills me...

ClassicAU · 18-10-2006, 04:53 PM

Well, i just got a reply. They do not deliver on weekends, but she said that if the money clears first thing Friday, there is a good change i will get it that afternoon! I just hope someone is home, what would happen if there isnt?

JeffAU1 · 18-10-2006, 05:00 PM

Then they Leave a note at your door and you have to go to your local post office to collect. And usually (depending on your local office) are only open until 12pm on a Saturday. SO just make sure you are home.

Secondly, If you had of just paid using PAYPAL (Credit Card) Then RATGLOBAL would have got the payment within minutes, but i guess you didn't want to know that.
