steering wheel differences?

[scott_fx]

Hey guys,



I am looking to get a steering wheel for my '66 chevelle but i have no idea what i'm looking for. I'm seeing them range from $100-$600+ but i can't see what makes them different (besides the obvious leather wrapped/billet etc). What should i look out for while researching? Also if anyone has any ~$225 range suggestions, i'd love to see/hear about them

thanks

Just got my horn button in today after 8 months of back order!

I have a grant 470-969-0 Classic Nostalgia steering wheel and a 5643 Horn button. It's Grant's replica of a N34 steering wheel.

Cost 117$ for the wheel, 24$ for the install kit and 23$ for the button. I'm more than satisfied.

Got this one on e-bay for like ~$140. The quality is good and it came with the correct adapter kit.

I purchased a royal knight wheel from Grip Royal. Pretty common in the import scene and I liked the look. I've got it waiting to go on and the leather smells like BMW leather.

thanks guys for the feedback so far.


I'm looking at some momo wheels as well, there seems to be a fine line of what would look good in our classics and what is too modern. Choosing paint was easier then choosing a steering wheel!

I would be interested in tips on size differences as well. I have heard it can make a noticeable difference.
