The Z4 wheel is way to modern for an e30.

Maybe this wheel instead it has no buttons, i like concave steering wheels and im not a fan of any other oem wheels. I think the mtech2 wheel was a bit ahead of its time

a z4 sterring wheel will do nothing for an E30 imo..

You know it isn't.
It is an M3 wheel, but the Alcantara was knackered, so I had it retrimmed with 1mm Neopreme underneath so to give it better grip in your hands. :D

Karl, they've put the price up on most items now, some doubled in price.
The Americans now have to pay close to $700 for a 370mm Tech 2 wheel 8O
