Steering wheel crisis averted.

[RTR077]

Looks like OP has the GT350 wheel.

I did the same upgrade last week and bought it from Steeda. With the forum discount and St Patrick's day sale, the price was excellent.

The only problem I ran into was taking the airbag off

After going thru this thread I'm now positive that when my stock wheel gets crummy looking I'm swapping to an upgraded wheel! Unless my track adventures take me into higher classes.

Could be a Beith (https://beithperformanceparts.com/) maybe? I think they even make a GT350 style one with the heated function.

Also curious what the OP's one is.

It’s a wheel from @GuardianDesigns . The other options have those thick grip lines and strong angles for the hand. Those wheels have to feel “chunky” during any kind of normal driving. Guardian also has the options for a much thicker and smaller diameter wheel than the one out of the 350. My $0.02

So it still has the controls backwards. I assume that's not a problem on a 18+ gt/eb?

I swapped out the controls from my stock to the new. Retained the dark chrome inlays from the new wheel. Everything worked just fine. The wires just power the controls, so you can swap around to your desired placements.

My car is a 2021

OP here. For the record, mine is a guardian design wheel.

They are high on my list when I get ready to upgrade.

How long did it take to get your order from them, and how has their service been so far?

Any issues or complaints regarding workmanship on the new wheel?

Why do so many feel the need to alter their perfectly good functional steering wheel???

The "leather" goes slick and shiny.

Plus GT350 wheel.

well considering how much "white" you slather everywhere it's no wonder...
my Camaro had Alcantara or something on it and I didn't care for it at all. The 200A eco is slightly gummy whereas the 300a is a bit slick unless it's been in the sun all day.

About 6-7 weeks from order to delivery. Quality is fantastic. Haven’t needed a thing since ordered so no complaints on customer service. The ordering and payment process was super easy and while I was a bit apprehensive sending hundreds of dollars electronically to Poland, my fears were unfounded. It was a seamless transaction.

Now they just need to offer a shift ball to match the custom wheel. Nice napa leather and same pattern/color stitching!

Thank you for this info!

Great to hear and glad the product meets the expectations!

What’s not to love about a mod you can see & touch every time you drive her ?

Nice wheel.

You went all leather no stripe.

This thread has me really liking these wheels! Now I can’t decide… not a carbon fiber guy. So, a mix of perforated leather, regular leather and alcantra. But what to put where? Does the alcantra wear faster?

I’ve been emailing the company from Todd @StangTime linked to. They can do everything. Stripe or no stripe?

Decisions decisions…
