Hi,

Looking into changing steering wheel...
wanted your opinion on Grant wheels, good/bad, what to look for, etc.

From what I can tell, the obvious difference is the 5-bolt (Grant) vs 6-bolt for the others.

was thinking on 1 of the 2 models (if I go Grant) ... both are 350mm

Otherwise, I'll go w/ Momo wheels w/ similar design:

The flat bottom wheels are a carryover from formula cars, where the cabin is extremely cramped and the leg clearance is needed. A formula car also has quicker steering and the driver keeps his hands in a fixed grip, no shuffle or hand over hand to get around a track. For a production car, esp on the street with parking lots and such, I would think that the flat bottom would be annoying, and the hands would either miss the wheel or have to search for it when you need more than 90deg of steerage. I've never tried one, so YMMV.

Suede is nice for a race car using gloves, but will mat up with hand oils and look terrible after use without gloves.
