A little more than 200 but I really like the 930S wheel.
I have a Momo in my 911 that I am pleased with, still have the dopey airbag wheen in my 951.

Someone had them for around $239 I thought a while ago, with a little more for the crest on it. 944Pete should know, he found the links.

As requested: 930S wheel

I'm really struggling with the decision to buy this right now or wait until after I move.
I want this so much.

I just put in a Momo Competition and I love it. Wheel was 235, and the adapter runs around 60-70 bucks on top of that. That 930S looks really sweet though, its making me think twice about the momo.

I bought the Momo Champion to replace my stock 3-spoke. Love the wheel, itll be carried over to every single car i ever own now! The wheel cost $211, and the adapter was only like $58 i believe. You will need Momo adapter #8010 for the early style 944.

I bought everything from LTB Motorsport. Very good customer service.

Or you can go for a SPARCO wheel. Little less expensive than MOMO, but good quality. I got a 2 color red/black in mine, the hub is actually the same as for a VW rabbit. I paid just about $200 with hub here in europe.
