Default Ebay Steering Wheel Quick Release Hub

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors...QrdZ1


Price seems cheap, anyone ever use one of these? If so would you recomend them?

I wouldnt trust ebay stuff with something so important such as steering. That extra $100 could save your life.

looks like a carbon copy of the NRG quick releases. probably made by the same manufacturing plant and sold independantly.

they are okay. only a little for/aft wobble from the steering wheel (which is common with QR's of this design), but nothing bad. it will space your wheel about 1.5" or so closer to the driver.

make sure you have a hub designed to fit a sparco/momo wheel for it to work.

agreed

Personally I would just save up and get more of a name brand. Just in my experience when you try to cut cost you suffer in quality. But of course that's only my experience.

^^ agreed. I personally had one of these knock off brands with a momo wheel in my hatch and it always felt loose. And guess what..one day driving down the freeway, my wheel popped out!! Scariest **** i've ever experienced in my old hatch

well you need a regular hub adapter to run the quick release anyway. if you just run a wheel + hub adapter and NO quick release, you will have a more solid connection

you don't need a quick release but it's better to have one.

so hub, quick release and steering wheel is what you need.

Quick tip: Dont buy **** for your ride on ebay..unless its a private seller and its not that cheap..

if thats the case just go to pepboys or autozone and pick up parts there! save ur self shipping

Only thing that's good from NRG are the quick release and slim hubs, the steering wheels look like crap.
