      I'm with DarkNova... but then again I lean more towards a modern, sporty pro tourer look than the stereotypical "hot rod", "baby boomer" pro tourer look... (there are always exceptions to the rule though)

      The steering wheels look very cool; nice modern designs.

      What I don't like is the $259.95 (polished) or $299.95 (black) price followed by: Price shown is for steering wheel only. Complete steering wheel installs require a Steering Wheel, Half-Wrap, Horn Button, & Steering Column Adapter.

      By time you get all the pieces to make it fit, you're probably looking at $500 or more.

      I like the black anodized, esp. the "Throttle". But like Yelcamino said at >$500 for the package deal I might just have to keep my Momo.

      If I'm depending on my grip to sling a car around a tight race course, I think I'd want something other than a "half wrap" with an exposed aluminum back side. Those Billet wheels are for show, not for go.
      Weekend projects aren't.

      I really like the new Shutt ZX-1, I picked one up from their booth at SEMA for super cheap on Friday afternoon. The contruction and feel are top notch.

      I have a billet half wrapped wheel on my Chevy II. Grip isn't a problem and I have a manual rack-n-pinion. How to properly turn the wheel is usually my problem.
