i cant stand the clumsy looking Porsche wheels like the 964 ones. The only reason i wanted suede was for the super race look haha. plus it looks like it would be warm in the winter time

you mean the 4-spoke 964 airbag wheels ?

they look horrible.


the momo wheels do look quite good on the early 924/944 dash.

I found this one in the "most beautiful 944" thread. I think it probably looks the best of all the ones I've seen.

quite nice isn't it.

Or, if you want to get fancy, you can do a 996 Tiptronic wheel and mod the buttons to operate the stereo...

My wife and I have done 5+ hour days in my fixed back seats with no discomfort. I think they are way more comfortable than stock (just much harder to get in and out of)

Looks like tan leather with either poor lighting or a skewed color balance to me.

After some googling... this appears to be a Momo Mod 07 deep dish.

Found it on sale at Pelican (here)
