New ones go for $500+ iff you can find one, there are lots of replicas out there without the bottom split seam that goes a the way up to the center where the crest is embossed. I'm partial, but it's probably the best wheel I've ever used. Why didn't you consider an extended hub if you needed the wheel closer?
As for why I call it a 930S wheel? Just following the crowd.

Sorry for being off topic, but does anyone know where I can get my steering wheel re-trimmed? I know alot of guys over the pond have a place they send theirs to. Is there a quality place to send mine to here in the US? Thanks.

Rey - I have not used him but a couple of local guys have used Tino Santoni and they were happy with the results. I believe it was ~$230 for leather refinishing.

I changed the 993rs wheel on mine for this one. Worth a look. Very nice

Three Wheelin'
Here's mine,
An OE 930S or I've heard it referred to as a Club Sport.
It's slightly off circular, flatter at the bottom so when spinning back it doesn't spin through your hands.
Not sure of the history of mine, it came with the car, possibly now 3rd hand and the leather has some damage to it. I've been quoted £325 for a re- trim, which seems a bit excessive.
I think Jack.Pe may have had a wheel re-trimmed for £130. Any recommendations?
(please ignore the awful gear ****!)
