Just look at pics of other types of cars. People don't rilly sport out a ride like this. I'm looking into a sport steering wheel my self. Although I want to make my car sporty, I'm gona keep it classy and get a wood grain.

I had a nardi wheel in my 92, I used a is300 momo hub with a quick release I had lying around, if I remember right, worked perfectly.

Default Just had my 94 LS400 Wheel Done and it looks Great

I wanted to have mine either reupolstered in the same leather or custom wood and found the name of a company who another ClubLexus owner also had his done. It took approximately 2 weeks, so I bought an old beat up steering wheel at the junk yard for $20.00 and used it while I sent mine off to be custom made by this company. Went with the Wood like the newer models and they matched my Burl Wood (I sent along my console wood piece so they could match it, and I had them re-leather my shifter ****, which they will give you a price break on if you do both togheter.) I believe the wood grain wheel was $499.00 and the shifter was $85.00. They correspond via telephone really well and always called back and did excellent work. The name of the company is Craft Customs in Rockwall, Tx, phone number 214-564-1170 and their website link is: http://www.craftcustoms.com/pages/Wh...witchboard.htm. They have a photo gallery that you can view any make or model of car and many lexus wheels. My 1994 LS400 finished wood steering wheel is in the lexus gallery 7 rows down and 3rd picture from the left (it has my wood grain console piece next to it so it shows how well he matched the burl wood) and the shifter that he re-covered in leather matches my wheel perfectly and you will find it just below in the 9th row and 2nd pic from the left I think (That was before he put wood on the wheel). Extremely pleased with the way it looks in the car, kept the classy look and now looks like a 1996-2000 2nd version LS.
