Flat top steering wheel feels weird?

yingiee · 09-29-2018, 07:50 PM

Anyone have this steering wheel or a different flat top? Does it feel weird driving with a flat top when holding 12oclock? I was about to pull the trigger during the eBay sale but I wasn't sure how I would like it. Anyone have any input or it doesn't feel any difference?

Yingiee, I have one that I got from some other vendor. It's not as weird as you may think. I would say get it. I have gotten a lot of compliments on the wheel. The main difference is that this one is carbon and mine is alcantara on top and bottom.

I was having doubts at first because no one I know ever drove with a flat top before but you sold me! It will be my next mod

I have a steering wheel with flat top and bottom. Looks good and in use I never really notice the difference from the standard steering wheel.
