After the new 17" rims and strut brace I think the steering wheel needs to go. I had a MOMO champion on my old MkII Golf and it made a huge difference to driving comfort.

The standard TH Exec wheel is too big, too thin and too unleathery. I know you can replace it with a leather VR-X wheels for ~$500. I assume the size is the same?

Has anyone seen or got a MOMO airbag wheel? Or any other brand. Any idea on prices?

To add to the on-going strut brace debate - IMHO it makes a difference. Harder you go the bigger the difference. I've noticed less understeer and better turn in. It doesn't get knocked offline by mid corner bumps as much and has better braking. Traction out of junctions with steering lock on is way up also. The wheels were on before the brace and made big difference, especially traction in the wet, but this is on top of that.

Anybody?

Anybody?

Yee, guys! I've been looking at this too. But losing the airbag is prolly gonna hold me back...

lose the air bag? :doubt:

illegal

Pop on a genuine Magna GTVi steering wheel... Nice!

The silver leather VR-X wheel is really nice, I had one on my last ride.

Fortunately the Ralliart that I recently purchased has a really nice red/black leather Momo airbag wheel allready on it though. :D

Note: If you car came out of the factory with an airbag it is illegal to replace it with a wheel that doesn't have one!

Another option to look at would be to look at getting your existing wheel leather wrapped/bound. Could possibly be cheaper and will likely look just as good if done right!

Thanks for the ideas guys. Prices pls....

Just to show I'm not a completely lazy git letting others do the work:

Emtech said forget about MOMO after market wheel if you have an airbag.

They will trim a magna wheel for you to your specification in a similar fashion to the VT Commydore wheels they have on their website http://www.emtechautomotive.com.au/products/emtech_steeringwheels_list.html

Cost is around $200 fitted if you give them your old wheel.

Other than that it's a Mitsu replacement or illegal non-airbag option (not for me).

I'm going to look at the Mitsu ones tomorrow.

The VRX leather steering wheels are very nice, I have one and I love it. But it would be cheaper to have yours trimmed it would say.

The GTV steering wheel would be nice, im assuming its the wood one? My uncle has one in his car and its very cool, although im more for leather.

The sports/vrx steering wheel is soo much better that the executive, can feel a huge difference.

What about an aftermarket MOMO with airbag????, would cost too much I guess :confused:

From speaking to retailers there isn't one. I'm sure MOMO would make you a custom one-off. Probably cost several grand!

im sure a while back someone posted that they found a momo with airbag wheel for the magna it was red and black or mabe im dreaming

Most likely the Momo wheel from a Ralliart like mine. :D
