    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!

    You should choose the 360 one, no other looks best.

    360 airbag wheel is by far the best option.

    I am working on a 430 steering wheel. Not sure how it will come out. I will update when done.

    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

    I would kill for a euro non airbag wheel. The problem is you can't find it anywhere.

    Modern wheels just don't fit the styling of the 355 interior.

    what did you do with the 95 wheel?
    I'll take it from your hands should you still have it.

    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.

    Has anyone had their factory steering wheel refurbished?

    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 prefer being period-correct, so the Euro pre-airbag F355 wheel gets my vote.

    So timeless, so simple, so beautiful.

    The pre-airbag steering wheel is definitely the steering wheel to get

    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.
