The
stock S2000 does not offer a two-toned steering wheel option
as some high performance cars, such as Ferraris, BMWs, and
Porsche models. Rick's Signature Accessories alleviates
this omission by providing this exceptionally crafted driver's
wheel.
Unlike
cheap leather steering wheel covers, which are stitched
over the existing wheel, the leather on Rick's steering
wheel is custom-sewn, then shrunk-fit onto the wheel, making
a glove-tight fit equal to or better than the stock S2000
wheel. The same OEM supplier who makes leather-covered steering
wheels for the leading domestic and import manufacturers
completes this shrink-fit process for each of Rick's S2000
wheels. Rick's two-color leather steering wheel is made
of the same top-quality Townsend leather as his other leather
accessories.
Before
the leather is fitted, each wheel is wrapped with an extra
1/16 of neoprene padding, which makes Rick's two-color wheels
slightly thicker than the stock wheel and provides a better
and more comfortable grip for vigorous driving.
Color
options include red (which matches the red seat leather),
yellow (which matches the spa yellow body color), and silver
(like the Type-V wheel, available only in Japan). Custom
colors are available by special request. Like the stock
wheel, black perforated leather is fitted to the right and
left side of the wheel. The colored leather, in solid leather
like the stock wheel, is fitted to the top and bottom wheel
sections.
Rick's
two-color steering wheels can be purchased outright or on
an exchange basis for half the price. The exchange requires
you to send your stock wheel to Rick when you have installed
the new replacement wheel on your car. If you make an outright
purchase, you keep your own stock wheel.
