Fat Steering Wheel

I'm looking for a fatter and possibly smaller diameter steering wheel. I abslutely need the airbag to work (for obvious reasons).

I have an Arctic Silver car with black interior and hope to have painted seatbacks and center console soon.

Any recommendations? Is this something I can do myself?

ari,

Check out the SpeedArt line...I almost bought one a while back, but went OEM carbon fiber instead. I wasn't sure I would like the smaller diameter and wanted the Porsche crest airbag.

I believe you can use the stock airbag with RUF wheels and also techart and MABYE gemballa, depending on the model.

that way, you get a thicker wheel with smaller diameter, AND keep stock airbag and get the crest.
