I bought the wheel off eBay from a seller called 911ava and found this combo, it was the steering wheel, the correct internal wiring harness, and the new airbag for 1600. It was soooo worth it for me. i could not stand the stock steering wheel. They look so old and dated. The difference this new one makes is staggering. I do also have a 991.2 wheel with the multifunction buttons too though haha! I might end up putting that one on and adding a porsche gps tech box to add multi functionality use with my PCM.
Edit: I will say too, the installation of the wheel takes about 5 minutes. Not kidding. You pop the airbag off, unclip the harness, unscrew the 55 Torx bolt, swap wheels, plug in the harnesses and torque the 55torx bolt back in. Job done. Sooooo easy.
Glad to hear the install was easy. I bought the same wheel + airbag the other day from another seller and cant wait for it to come in.
Carrera S II wheels on 997.2 C2S narrow body - Front - 8 x 19 ET 57 - Rear - 11 x 19 ET 67
Michelin PS4S
- 235/35/19
- 295/30/19
I have seen many people say 295 on 11” wide looks stretched but I feel it looks perfect. I think 305’s would bulge a little. I’d say the fronts could go with 10-12mm spacers for a more flush setup, 15mm on the rears are perfect for these wheel offsets and tyre size.
On a side note, can anyone tell from these pics whether it looks like I have Sports PASM, or regular PASM from the ride height?

I am going to guess Sports PASM. Am I right? Do I win something?
Here is my car OEM with the Sports PASM and 305s before adding anything (OEM springs/No spacers...on new PS4S 305s and 235s in the front):
did the steering wheel. swap on mine this last weekend. huge difference. definitely updates the interior and the road feel of a slightly larger wheel is very nice
Took the car to the shop for a simple oil change & trans fluid change. Well it turns out not so simple after all. Got an email that there was an oil leak.
Got new RMS seal & IMS seal. Had the clutch done while they were at it. It was due anyway.
Finally pick her up and $3800 lighter on the wallet...

New IMS seal? I have never heard of people replacing the IMS seal. Removing yes replacing no. Please clarify.
Could you post the link to this steering wheel? Thank you

how easy is this to do.? bought my car from private seller about 15mo ago. would consider it as an option but not sure the window and details.
Hi Thomas - like a panty raid on a retirement home, it all depends.
How many miles?
What year?
Existing warranty ?
Location can also be a factor. Some will write sight unseen - some require inspection based on the above.
For most people it may not be a viable option or an option at all.
There are two well known Fidelity sellers for Rennlist
