Ian,

Contact Jim Knowles at jknowles1@cfl.rr.com - he's a great guy who put a group buy together, including making the adaptors and a discount on the wheel. The wheel not only looks good, it has an airbag and gives the car an entirely new more precise feeling. What's really amazing is how heavy the old GM wheel is, it must be at least 12lbs!

looks great, matches all the aluminum accents in there nicely

I also think it loooks good - how big is the wheel and can you still see the top instruments ?

I have also fitted a similar wheel but without the silver and fully agree about the feel of the Car.

Looks great Paul. I think that wheel would go well with my car. :hmm:

Paul,

Thanks for the info....I sent Jim an E-mail!

Looking forward to that. I feel like I'm driving an exotic Pontiac with that silly steering wheel!!!!!!

Love the car, hate the wheel!!!!

Thanks again..

I have the same wheel in my car.

It really is amazing how much better the car now "feels". I had the same wheel in my S4s prior to the V8, and believe this is what made the V8 feel heavy and clunky, as once I drove the V8 with the Raid wheel it now has the same "sharpness" I experienced from the S4s. Best mod I've done to any of my Esprits!
