Can't let it slip thru your hands like the BA. Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/47067-fg-xr6t-steering-wheel/#findComment-708433 Share on other sites More sharing options...
dave- Member 157 Member For: 20y 4m 12d Location: Melbourne Posted 22/07/08 10:52 AM Share Posted 22/07/08 10:52 AM I had the upgraded wheel (liked it) on my first turbo and the standard one (hated it) on the 2nd. But I reckon the standard wheel on the FG is as good as the upgraded BA one, actually feels a bit nicer IMO.

New FG wheel is fine. I found my old BA got kind of "shiny" over time where as the new FG wheel feels pretty good.

Momo wheel had the tastiest leather though Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/47067-fg-xr6t-steering-wheel/#findComment-709709 Share on other sites More sharing options...
