One of the biggest (and wisest) investments I ever did to the X. I love the feel of the wheel (ugraded from a non sport wheel). It's even thicker than the ///M wheel I have on my 330.

Jsut be careful of the steering wheel trim. It scuffs real easy.

Can you do the upgrade if you have a heated steering wheel?

I replaced my regular Sport Steering with this M Sport Wheel. Never thought about selling the SPort wheel, I will be in California in a week or so, maybe if U want it, we can figure out something, PM me pls.

I would never trade my heated wheel. It gets too cold in the city.
