go the race. i've got one trust me u wont be dissapointed. get on ebay cos they go for almost half the price u got quoted, i've bought 2 race wheels off autotek's ebay store for no more than $250 delivered
What color Calais?
My Bro has the white/silver Momo jet in his white over silver calais.
I'd go either the
Black or Silver/White & Carbon fibre
MoMo Jet!

EDIT: anybody know any cheaper wheels that sorta look like the momo jet? Pretty much just after a silver/white wheel, and recon ide be paying a lot just for the brand name..
The momo jet, full leather, soft hide, carbon fibre, brushed alloy, stiff frame,
My bro scored his with some deal from autobarn year or so ago, u can still get them some places an sometimes second hand on ebay,
$350-$450, sometimes boss included.
Price of a steering wheel should never be scrounged on, just think, You alway ssteer with it.
Cheers

see if you can find one with the yellow band around the top, it makes it easier to find the apex in corners and get the right amount of turn-in.
hmm, the only use for a band on the top would be in rallying, with all the opposite lock happening, but IMO if you need a band on the steering wheel to tell where you'll end up, you shouldn't be driving fast in the first place.
a cheaper way of getting that band is coloured electrical tape, which you can just take off whenever you like, the wheel you're after might not have a band available and its not expensive.
to the op, if its a sandy coloured interior, that silver/white wheel might look good, depending on how close the colour is. the right steering wheel can be hard to find..
I fitted one of these to my VP. Its off a 96 SB Barina non airbag. Nice and chunky and feels great to steer and matches colour. Only prob is the self canceller is on the opposite side being european and ive gotta do it myself.
