Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

Anyone have pics of thicker wheel (preferably in black, but doesn't matter)? I'd like to see one side by side with the stock wheel for my car ('04 C4S) if anyone has them. Thanks.
You know, you can do a search.... Very helpfull!! I just did one and notice you had already asked about the thicker steering wheel.
Anyhow I just did the search for you.
Scroll down for pictures
According to Suncoast:
Generously upholstered in stylish black leather to offer added elegance and tactile appeal. Wheel diameter is expanded by approximately 2.4 mm for optimum grip characteristics.
My searching has revealed some people love it and some hate it. Those that hate it comment on wheel only feeling comfortable in large hands. On the other hand, the diameter is only increasing by 2.4 mm. Doesn't seem like a lot. Not to mention, at ~$800.00...
I'd love to buy the thicker wheel, but everything I've read says that the OEM wheel can only be purchased in black. Anyone hear differently? I've got a seal grey interior.
I don't believe that's true. Carnewal sells it in most interior colors. Check their site.
I love mine and think it's well worth it. My original four-spoke is certainly no contest, but I think the thicker wheel is a vast improvement over even the factory three-spoke in both look and feel.
I'm going to check it out on Friday and have Brandywine install it if I like it - along with clear side markers. Also, just ordered a dual mode batter maintainer from Suncoast for the winter.
You are right.
Normal 3 spoke in every color
Thicker 3 spoke only in black.
Why not get the 3 spoke GT3 with Alcantara or the small 340mm leather wheel from carnewal.
