Steering wheel decisions. Sparco VS OMP!

[whatisjustis]

What to go for!?

Sparco

OMP

 

[Ali]

neither, get the cup racer one.

 

[brownale01]

both same size? omp looks dogs
EDIT.... yer good point cup racer one is mint mate, not as easy to get a hold of though is it?

 

[whatisjustis]

Is the cup racer wheel the Sabelt one? Blue in colour?

 

[brownale01]

yer think so mate

 

[whatisjustis]

Just tried googling it the Sabelt one, no luck! The Sparco wheel is 330mm in diemeter, waiting on a reply about the OMP one.

Sparco for me, looks less fussy.

Still, depends what the application is too - is this for a trackday car or just a tarted up road car?

 

[coatesy]

both look crap pal

 

[brownale01]

isnt there some fella on here who can get hold of cup racer gear from france? dave or something?

It's just to tart up the interior a bit. My steering wheel is in good knick for its age (Y reg) so I thought I'd preserve it by removing it!

Which Dan would that be? There are quite a few!

Hmm I would stick with a full fat one mate unless you're planning on stripping it and fitting buckets I dont think it would look all that great.
Plus one of the few benefits of owning a renault is their safety, it would be sensible to retain the airbag

 

[brownale01]

i have also heard something about cars which come with an airbag as standard would fail their mot if there is not an airbag present?

I know what you're saying Jack. I do like the OEM one just pondering a change I guess.

Interesting...

 

[jack_davey]

No it's not true, a car wont fail an MOT for having an airbag light on or missing an airbag where there should be one.

 

[drhowser]

i think r-sport might have one racer wheel left in stock. they did a couple of weeks ago.

 

[Amy]

Ahh jonny what yer doing? Looks gash compared to standard.

OMP if i had to choose :rasp:

 

[W17GLE]

[CBetts]

[mark989]
