My birthday's coming up next month and my wife wants to get
me a new steering wheel to replace the factory plastic skinny
wheel in my Firebird...

I can get a refurbished T/A wheel with black or silver spokes
for $250 with the collar...

Suggestions?? Pricing???

Well if you want to keep the look of your factory wheel then Budnik makes a billet one that is dead on.. Johnny got one for the G28 project it's pretty nice, get it in the brushed finish so it doesn't blind you. :)

You could even have them annodize it black..

Either that or one of the offerings from Momo or Sparco..

Any of those are gonna run you $300 with the hub and button. A budget choice would be a Grant wheel for quite a bit less.

I've got a LeCarra Shelby copy (which is appropriate for my Mustang), but it's also available anodized black and with wood rim or leather rapped in 14" diameter. Check Summit, but I think it's under $200 with mounting kit and button.

BTW, did you get the pics I emailed?
