Very Nice..I LIKE! Does it have the same diameter as the OEM wheel? I noticed that the sidegrips are thicker ... they all come like that?? How much does that thing run?? plus airbag?

that's is the different tech art style with the different airbag (non factory) but I do believe it's also smaller in diameter, right Ken?

HE SUCKS!!!!!! STay AWAY!

When you finally saw him, was there any white residue under his nose ?


P.S. hate to say I told you so ......... but ....

Orli930...how did you know where he lived?? Was the detective work fun? So did he have that white residue under his nose? I wouldnt be surprised...if I dont hear from him by tomorrow...I will dispute the charge with AMEX.

The TA wheel in the photos is 320mm in diamter. It is illegal for use in the US and it uses a TUV approved airbag. It also comes in the more readily available 340mm diameter. The stock wheel is 362mm in diameter.

No way I'd pay a dime for that wheel, but you better call the CC company now, sometimes there are time limits on disputes.


That Techart is sweet.

I used him for a thicker steering wheel and to do some work on my shift boot and airbag cover. The airbag cover looks highschoolish. The other two items came out looking pretty good. All items had to be returned multiple times to get them to the acceptable range.

So who can do decent leather work then? I have another item I would like to get worked.
