Default Steering wheels...

Hey I am looking into some Nardi steering wheels

These:




I dont know much about the feel of aftermarket steering wheels but looking at these, i think they'll be kickass.

If anyone knows the difference of the way a stock SI steering wheel and a 360mm steering wheel feels, help would be appreciated.

Go here: HondaMarketPlace.com » Miscellaneous and Appearance » NRG Quick Release // Short Hubs // Locks

by weaksauce, they have ones with red stitching/diff. design patterns if you're interested..

When I got rid of mines? wtf

im probably going to get the one with blue stitching.

but it's 385 dollars.

and 340mm

the black NRG QR is what i was looking at too.

He's saying the steering wheel gives him a better feel when he got rid of his aftermarket steering wheel in his si.

Your translation is wrong. He clearly states that aftermarket is better so why would he get rid of his aftermarket wheel?

It clearly states that he has lost interest in his aftermarket steering wheel and is going to get a new one made of chocolate because it makes him feel better. and it makes him look cool

Go measure the diameter of your stock steering wheel then use 2nd grade math to figure it out.

Use dollar bills, each one is 6" long. Tape two end to end and you have a ruler.

Fold them in 6th's to make inches.

Or spend $2.50 for a tape measure.

its not really a literal size question.

im pretty much asking if there is a size difference between 360 and stock.

no one tends to grasp what im saying.

i dont have time for rulers.. walmart's too far away.

Yes, there is a difference. Stock is 380mm. God, getting you kids to figure your own **** out is like pulling teeth.
