The thick wheel I have in the 4.8is is the best wheel I have in my stable.
As good as the Mwheel in the Z4M and better than the GT3

This wheel is better than the stock 4.8is wheel. Better leather and thicker. Its the X3 M-sport wheel.

SSG paddles have a different mechanism compared to the SMG paddles. Each SSG paddle has a "push" and "pull" action.

Yeah, i have been waiting religiously for a sports wheel with this type of paddles to surface ( i know it cost arm and leg to do this retrofit) and since his was a good deal, i grabbed it right away. It's not gonna come again, at least not very easily. You can see SSG paddles on new models and having this look brings updated scene on my dash. Jay was a cool guy and gave me a better deal.
