Want to trade?

I hate the feel of suede on these gt350 steering wheels, prob not going to be very durable . should be able to get a new leather one from ford off of a premium car, think it will work?
I have a GT Premium with leather steering wheel I would be glad to trade you for your GT350 wheel. Let me know.

Kinda like kicking Sofia Vergara to the curb because Rosie O'Donnell is at the front door.

Ugh, that's a horrible image. That said...

My '11 GT500 had Alcantara inserts on the steering wheel. After 2 years of daily driving, the Alcantara was beginning to develop shiny spots (like you get on worn suede shoes) where my hands normally rested. It wouldn't be a bad idea in the long run to buy a spare 350 steering wheel and tuck it away for the future.

Yeah I bought the R wheel and put the stocker in storage =). I had the boss 302 wheel in my GT and it developed the same smooth areas, but still less slick than leather when your palms are sweaty

I had mine recovered in leather, half perforated and half smooth. Added thicker padding to beef it up a bit:



Love the quality and feel.

Donald does great work, I had him do my Evo X wheel (padded, alcantara, red stripe at top) years ago and it came out amazing, far far better than the pencil-thick wheel the Evo came with.

Have a 4,000 mile take off leather setting here in a GT350 wheels box. Make offer by PM if you want it. You can keep your stock one. But I would sent mine off to the leather gt350 wheel guy above. Thats a nice steering wheel.
