Sport Wheel vs. the M Wheel?

[Roc3b]

Ok ladies and gentlemen.....lay it on me. I have the sport package and was not even thinking about the steering wheel but it would seem that it is a mod that a serious enthusist would make please provide the pros and cons.....thank you very much.....!

Pros - much beefier but more cushy feel, thumb rests - no comparison to the sport wheel.

Cons - causes regrets that you didn't do it sooner

No cons other than the potential expense of a new airbag if you don't have the right one. Other than that, I love it. It's the best mod bang for your buck hands down. (Pun sort of intended. You put your hands on it, you know, hands, steering wheel... forget it. )

Ok...so your saying the airbag on the sportwheel does not fit the M wheel?

Airbag on sport wheel fits the M wheel for 2003 and older.

The only other possible con is that the diameter of the "M" wheel is about 1/2" smaller, so it makes the wheel very slightly harder to turn. BUT, this is the best mod for the $$$ period. I love mine every time I drive the car.

NO!!!!! The airbag in a 2001 with the sport wheel will fit the M wheel just fine. Put that $500 to better use

[Roc3b]

So it is confirmed...the airbag in my stock sport wheel will fit in the M wheel?
Where can I score one? I thought it was just me in thinking that wheel was a bit firm.
