I vote no because I think there needs to be more wheel and there is to much open, think about originality as well and what it means to you, because it seems like these will go over just like the unknowns and everyone will have them

but if you do get them, def paint the swaps the color of the car

Cooo,

I was never planning on getting these but just wondering what ppl thought. For the most part I do these PS's to help ppl virtual tune their cars and of course my SS. I have done a ton of chops In my never ending search for the perfect wheel and occassionally like to share the pics.

The search continues.......

LOL, Funny thing. I called and no-one could tell me. alls they could tell me is that it is a "lightweight racing wheel". lol- i'll weight them if i have to

I would contact them they may be able to now. but a few mo. ago they couldnt. and they said since it was on thier site. they would have them drilled for me for no cost if i wanted them.
