Has anyone bought this steering wheel?
Thinking this might look cool in our trucks. Wondering if the wood grain is close to the wood grain on Cheyennes ?

Re: Has anyone bought this steering wheel?
I like both those wheels – especially the first one. Is there any dish in those? How big are they?

Re: Has anyone bought this steering wheel?
Definitely one of the nicest aftermarket wheels I've seen.

I have that steering wheel in my truck. I have the black leather wrap instead of the wood though. The horn was not usable as it came so I had to modify it. |

I bought that same wheel with the black leather wrap. I have had it on the truck for about a year now and it still looks great.

Re: Has anyone bought this steering wheel?
Thanks everyone for the feedback, I was thinking the black one would look good in my truck.

Re: Has anyone bought this steering wheel?
That is a good looking wheel and yes would look good in your truck and I'd like to see a pic of the black one installed.

Had to sand and stain to match since to stain it came with was too red. Also painted the brass. Matches the side panels really good - satin clear isn't completely dry in the close up photo. I like it but the smaller wheel takes a little to get use to.

Re: Has anyone bought this steering wheel?
Great job on the "redo". That is one of the best looking steering wheels that I have seen yet. I've been trying to decide on one myself, you just solved it for me.

Re: Has anyone bought this steering wheel?
Thanks- I used an old can of Dark Walnut I had, two coats to darken it up and then 3 coats of the satin clear.
Says 14" but wheel is slightly larger than 13.5, big change from the original 17".

Re: Has anyone bought this steering wheel?
Those wheels are hard to beat for the $. That one looks great in your truck. Nice work matching it to your wood grain!

Re: Has anyone bought this steering wheel?
Finally! An aftermarket wheel that doesn't look like a cheap mismatch for our trucks! Very nice.
