I decided to give in to the slippery slope after seeing Chuck W's beautiful custom 4-spoke steering wheel he got back a few weeks ago. I was casually looking around on Ebay when I scooped a deal on a late model 4-spoke wheel...which I 'won' for $22!

I debated where to send it. The general consensus was either Cars Dream in Poland or Dallas Custom Steering Wheel. After some back and forth I sent it to Don Le at Dallas. He was able to work with me a little on price, and does great work...plus I wanted to support our folks working in the USA. If we don't support them, soon there won't be anybody left around. It worked out being just marginally more expensive than Cars Dream.

These are the specs -

- Black perforated leather on sides
- Black smooth leather on top and bottom
- Steering wheel thickened by 1/16th
- Steering wheel thickened Hand Grips
- Black stitching
- All placement of thread and joints in original positions

What do you think? I also ordered a new air bag retainer as a precaution.

That looks great! I do prefer the later 3 spoke design, but if your going to go 4 spoke that's the ticket!

Fantastic!

Now get rid of that cheap Chinese-made measuring tape!

Looks very nice.

Is 1/16th enough of a padding? I'm thinking of going with 1/8th, but don;'t want the wheel to be too thick.

Don did a killer job on my4-spoke wheel also...

Hi Don,

Looks great! I really like the idea of recovering the 4-spoke retaining the vintage 911 look.

Did you consider using the grey color for the top and bottom of the wheel? I have classic grey interior and have been thinking of a two-tone wheel. Anyone else done that?

Beautiful. I love the original 4 spoke redone. It looks incredibly expensive.

TheBen

It's 1/16th padding.

Nice wheel, doing my best to not buy it from you. I already have a 3 spoke 996, a grey 4 spoke on the way. I just really like the look of this one, quality!

Why the change of heart? Looks great.

Oh sure, but buy a tape measure made in China.
