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 http://www.grantproducts.com/products/view/129/ http://www.grantproducts.com/products/view/128/ Otherwise, I'll go w/ Momo wheels w/ similar design: http://www.momousa.com/tuning/steering-whe...l?view=featured http://www.momousa.com/tuning/steering-whe...ompetition.html http://www.momousa.com/tuning/steering-whe...uark-black.html Thanks, |

I wanted a little bit of contrast without looking too ricer-ish... I have the grey/black f1 wheel:
http://www.grantproducts.com/products/view/139/ I'm fine with the looks/quality, but it is a vinyl wheel and it certainly leaves something to be desired in grip and feel. It is a heck of a lot cheaper though. I really like the size though I wish it had a little more set back. From the looks of it I figured it would be an inch+ further back from the factory wheel, but it's at most a 1/2" offset. |

I have the grey/black f1 wheel: http://www.grantproducts.com/products/view/139/ <SNIP> but it is a vinyl wheel and it certainly leaves something to be desired in grip and feel. <SNIP> Gloves will help with that a lot. We use batting gloves. They're fairly light, well-ventilated (which is important where we autocross), easy to find, and cheap compared to other 'driving' gloves out there. They're not nomex gloves, but we're not even looking for those. This post has been edited by CrashTestDummy: Feb 12 2014, 07:39 PM |
