just the wheel itself may be ok, its just a piece of steel with cushion and fabric on the end (if worst comes to worst the stitching on the fabric would come loose)

wheel hubs and horns tend to be crap if bought from ebay

I had a Ebay aftermarket wheel with a quick release setup. My hub and quick release were actually decent but the wheel was cheap and crap. For 30 bucks though, I really couldn't complain.

you get what you pay for... that goes for shoes, cars, parts, women (j/k i hope you don't have to pay for women)... but i'm sure it will be fine for while, the materials are cheaper than a brand name wheel... so i'm sure they will wear out faster... but for 30-50 bucks you can replace it in a year, or just spend the money and buy one that will last a long time.

If the duct tape wrapped steering wheel that you have on your car is the OEM Honda wheel then I would keep it and buy a steering wheel cover. That might also be a better idea than going with a really cheap wheel even if you don't have the original wheel in your car.
