Sparco 345, I don't like the bling holes on the others.

I am in the states in two weeks bud. If you want that wheel then get it and ship it to my hotel in Vegas. I will bring back for you.

I like the Prodrive one and with Gangsta's offer it could be solved
I have a mailing address in Florida if that helps and of course WRX Yank has a US address in the UK

p.s. if you are going to buy a new steering wheel then only buy the Prodrive one ... it's the most bling and will look the best.

Not being out of order to frayz or anything but that centre point marker is only usefull if you are doing 100mph through a wood or around the edge of a cliff in greece. If you can't tell what way your wheels are pointing on the road then you need to retake your test IMHO.

Lol, true. But i actually like the centre marker. Helps when doing wheel alignment too for quick refrence to the wheel centreline
Not planning on any forest stages this year though lol
