I’ve looked at them. They’re more affordable than OEM all of a sudden. I really do like the look.

Steering wheel prices doubled recently...not sure as to why. The handkraft wheel is actually the less expensive option nowadays (unless you can find a decent used wheel at a salvage yard).

I don't see all the big fuss about paddle shift. Ya it's kinda cool, manual/button does same thing. Kinda goofy looking with column shift I think....

i actually saw this one looking on ebay for a raptor wheel.. this wheel is amazing .. especially the carbon fiber .. if you don't want paddle shifts i would grab it ASAP

their website said $900 .. at $900 i would grab the raptor wheel even if i don't use the paddle shift .. coming from manual cars i hate the paddle shift concept .. but i think it would be pretty cool to use from time to time i will eventually grab a raptor wheel
