Ive just bought a suede wheel from Mac#1. Looks just like a Momo to me but a fraction of the price. You are welcome to have a look if you want (ive not fitted it yet though).

I opted for suede for same reasons as you are thinking about.

You got any pics of it couldn't find any on their website...?
What size's do they do? n was it undrilled?

I used to have an alcantara wheel on my MR2, it was very comfortable and grippy, but got dirty quickly.

Partially due to it being blue and me being a mechanic.

Hi there,

I don't know how much Darren's/BigRich's were, but I bought this one from ebay for £26. It is a Momo wheel and that included the pad on the front, and even though it didn't say it was New, it really looks/feels it!

That looks just like mine but without the pad.

I wont say what i paid as i was quoted one price but paid another. Sadly i paid the higher one. I searched ebay for months but never saw any. Steve - yours was a proper bargain.
