What's the general preference out there, have got a Tech1 & Tech2 370mm Steering Wheel but can't makeup my mind on what to keep on the car then cash in on the other :?

A 370mm tech one is a great steer. I'd have one over a tech 2 any day. The latter just looks too late in an e30 except a tech 2 sport.

As b7 says really the tech 2 , although feels great to drive with only looks good in a facelift sport or is, with black headlining and darker sport seats , looks too modern and out of place in a pre facelift or poverty spec car

370 tech 1 is the best by far, awsome to use

Robbo, you seriously need others opinions to determine what steering wheel you prefer?

I prefer the look of the tech 1 but my cab had the tech 2 from the factory so its staying.

Was just asking in general what everyone else thought of the two different steering wheels :roll:
