Hi Guys, I'm looking to change out the stock steering wheel on my F355 GTB as its really really big and ugly looking. Do you guys have any good recommendations? I've seen 360 steering wheel put on the 355 but I'm totally okay to with non-airbag ones also. Thanks!
Man I just really love the stock wheel. It feels so wrong to me to switch it out to another model. If I had to I would go for the euro non airbag wheel. Best of luck
360 or 575 wheel gets my vote. Debating doing the swap myself. It's a *little* too modern for the 355 but not too crazy. Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login
hey those bottom 2 pics are my car shot in my garage before I sold her 1995 355 spyder with 360 wheel......... pretty cool stuff
I've got the 360 wheel on mine and love it. Other than that I really like the one Robb has on his yellow 355 (non airbag).

Count me in the small group that prefers the original wheel as well. Some of the other options, the wheel itself is better looking but I think the original is a great match to the rest of the interior styling.
This post made me realize that I can't even picture what my steering wheel looks like, it feels good though. To change it out for a non airbag one seems reckless though.
I agree with Eric, the modern wheels don't look right. I went through a whole host of options but I think some of the non airbag Momo wheels suit the car really well. Its obviously not for the purists but I think it looks the part. A non Airbag 355 wheel, now that's what I was really after but is nearly impossible find and rather steep if you're lucky enough.
Nindia, Am I correct that your pic #1 is a 360 wheel, and #2 & 3 are 575 wheels, and that they are both direct 'hook up the wires' & bolt ons?
I had a 360 Stradale steering wheel in my 355. The horn placement is better than the standard 360 wheel. Similar to the 430. http://www.ferrarichat.com/forum/attachment.php?attachmentid=2045295&stc=1&d=1427252098 Image Unavailable, Please Login
I prefer being period-correct, so the Euro pre-airbag F355 wheel gets my vote. So timeless, so simple, so beautiful.
You could argue the 360 wheel is period correct as it came out in 1999. IMO it's the best looking wheel if you want an airbag. It certainly feels much nicer in the hand, and is the mod which has done more to improve the driving experience than any other I've done.
