Steering wheel opinion

Hey all, I'm looking for someone's experience with a half-wrap steering like this one: https://fssteeringwheels.com/collect...=4147020496937

I noticed that the steering wheel is all metal on the backside and am wondering if it gets really hot if the truck is parked in the Sun.

Thanks

Re: Steering wheel opinion

I have one of their wheels , love it
When I got it I was thinking that it was going to be a big change on the driving experience being smaller but I found no change
The quality is outstanding
As far as the backside getting hot , I think it stays cooler being aluminum

I have one of their wheels in my 50 Chevy BelAir, I love it. I did have an issue with the wrap covering working loose. I contacted them and they shipped a replacement the same day.

Hey I really appreciate both your thoughts on the steering wheel. With such positive reviews I have no choice but to buy it now!

It’s on the floor mat itself. I ordered it that way from Lloyd’s Mats. But I don’t believe they offer that particular embroidery anymore.
