I am getting a nice price on Personal and Nardi Steering wheels. If you don't know about them, they are becoming increasingly popular in the Spo-Com tuning scene. The steering wheels are made in Italy and come in a variety of different trims (Leather, suede). They are high quality pieces that add style and sophistication.

Here are a few examples:

Personal Grinta in Black Leather w/ Red stitching (comes in 330mm and 350mm) $205 Shipped

Another alternative to the quick release hubs that everyone has is Workbell. Already being used on top JDM racing circuits, these have been race proven and are favored by many top Japanese drivers.

If you want to add something a little different to your BMW, this would be a great replacement for those "bus sized" steering wheels!

I will update this thread with more wheels from Personal and Nardi as demand and interest increases. Feel free to PM me about prices on other wheels not shown here.

What's your price on a personal Fitti F1 320mm suede?

The quick release is 300 and the wheel is 200?

correct

um wow... hehe

um wow... hehe

I suppose the craftsmanship in making the quick release's reflect the price. They are a very nice high quality piece.

Do they have any flat bottomed models and can they do tri-colored stitching?

Can you get the stitching in any different colors? I like the grinta, but not in the red? Can you use the momo hub adapter to fit these in e36s?

I don't believe that Nardi does personal stitching. They are a large company and unless there is a demand for them, I don't think it would be worth it for them to mass produce a tri-color stitched wheel. Its probably possibly for a upholstery or leather shop to modify a wheel for you.

Can you get the stitching in any different colors? I like the grinta, but not in the red? Can you use the momo hub adapter to fit these in e36s?

Yes I believe they come in a few different colors (red, blue, yellow). I will find out more info.

Can you provide the hub adapter kit for an e36 m3?

Very Interested would like to know about fitting a different hub adapter though.

I think I can drum something up.

I am 99% that it will fit most conventional hubs.

Can you provide the hub adapter kit for an e36 m3?

If you can provide a means for this, you can consider at least one of these bought!

very interested pending more info on the hub info

If you can provide a means for this, you can consider at least one of these bought!

I will see if I can put together a kit. If anything I'll slap a hub on one of my cars w/ steering wheel and take a pic :)

Can you do a side by side of the two wheel models? I can't tell the difference (other than material type and stitching color) between them in the pictures shown.

ill try as soon as I can :)

Adam let me know what colors you can get, and what else do I need to instal this in my car?

I believe that a momo wheel adapter or something comparable will work however a adapter piece needs to be purchased in order to mate both the hub and steering wheel.

Momo hubs can be found for around $80. The adapter piece is $40. I am going try to work out a package deal.

adapter? which piece is that?

when i had a quick release setup on my old car, it was.. wheel mated to the qr, with the bottom half of the qr mated to the hub that was connected to the steering column.

the layout for how the qr bolts on is what's most important, from the 6-bolt layout picture you can tell that it bolts on to the momo hub setup. you can see the same layout on the personal steering wheel.

I believe Nardi, however, has a different layout so it will not work with the layout from momo hubs (if memory serves me correctly)

hope this clears up some questions for the vendor :thumbup:

correct, Nardi uses a different 6 bolt pattern. Nardi however does sell an adapter plate to adapt the momo hub to the Nardi steering wheel.

I am going to test this out and get back to you guys. I am sure it will work though.

just want to affirm the fact that Works Bell QR's are some of the best out there in terms of quality and build, there's a reason why imitations have a setup similar to these..only 2-3 other companies with top quality qr's in Japan/Europe that I can think of off the top of my head at this time

Price for the personal Suede with red stiching and cheapest hub available.

You can pm me or something once you get it all figured out.

Thanks

looks great! more pics:)

I asked this before and I apologize if its been answered and Im just not seeing it but do you have any flat bottomed models available? I may be interested if you have something like that.

Ever get the hub situation figured out?

I want to put this on the xmas list! :D

Hey guys, I am ordering a batch this week and also the special hub adapter needed to fit these steering wheels on a momo hub. Will update asap.

M3Rob95, hold in there buddy I'll have something for ya soon!

I want this wheel + hub! How much shipped to T0K 0Z0, Canada. PM or e-mail me. Thanks.

M3Rob95, hold in there buddy I'll have something for ya soon!

dude, it's been almost a month since the original hub request. Hopefully, this isn't your responsiveness all the time :rolleyes. Not trying to shit on your thread, just trying some motivation.

Doing the best I can with what I have. To give you guys the best prices I'll have to do a buy in personally. I'll have to stock 10+ steering wheels myself, to get this done is no easy task.

I'll have something for you guys soon.

pm me when you get this worked out

|Subscribed for updates...

up

And for the third time, are you planning on offering any flat bottomed models?

I dont think its gonna happen man :(

I didn't forget about the thread guys. I will update when I get more info. I am expecting a first order within two weeks.

I don't believe there are any flat bottom Personal Wheels however I will update if they add anything to their line.

Finally have the $ to pick up a set, what do you think a good black/blue wheel would be for a E36 328I Montreal Blue? I trust your judgement lol. I dont want to much blue you know? Not trying to re-blue my interior or anything like some ricers.

:shifty

any luck?

?

ill be down for a red personal steering wheel. if it would fit my E34 without a 300 hub...:shifty

Still awaiting reply to "What's your price on a personal Fitti F1 320mm suede?"
