Installed M3 SMG II wheel into the X yesterday. I highly recommend it. Extremely fun mod, and not too bad on cost if you can find the wheel used.:cool

You wire it up to work?

I was going to do that....and still might do it this summer.

Nice work man :)

yes, its fully functional. Don't waste money on a retro kit, you just need an SMG wheel, a new hub, and a few wiring supplies. Its a lot of fun :cool

Preppy: MCoupes and X5s make a killer combination for sure. :D

Notice any difference?

Only a vast improvement in my ability to get from fifth to third on the highway for passing. Fun on some mildly twisting roads too.

is this wheel any more comfortable than the stock sport wheel?

smaller and fatter
