Default C6 'D' Shape Steering Wheel
Hi All!

What do you guys think of a 'D' Shape steering wheel on a c6 vette?

Also, any idea where/who might have them for sale?

Thanks!

The only place I would consider is from Gerardo at Down South Vettes. Here are a few threads with some options. You didn't mention what year your Corvette was and there are a few different wheels for our cars.

Welcome to the forum. Congratulations on the Corvette. The second link from the top will get you to the 2005 version of the wheel.

Paul

p.s. Happy Birthday.

Default D wheel
the DSV wheel is awesome. The grips really help make the wheel feel new, different, and user friendly.

And it looks great.
