lordleonusa Posted August 11, 2007 Share Posted August 11, 2007 Nothing taken personally, but I can't really say I have noticed any real flexing problem with mine, althoug having had wire (road) wheels for a while, I can see where you are coming from.I had on my Herald for many years - over 100,000 miles, a Moto-Lita Flat/non-dished wheel, the wooden one with the rivets around the outside edge, that was a really nice wheel to use and it reminded me of the Aston Martin in Goldfinger, so I liked it a lot, but it did get cold in winter and hot in the summer, so I wore leather driving gloves to deal with that. (old school).Some folk like the rivets, some don't, again horses for courses.All a matter of personal choice.RegardsLéon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GT6boy Posted August 12, 2007 Share Posted August 12, 2007 With apologies to Tim B, I have a rather dashing Momo wheel. It used to be dreadful wrestling with the old Triumph wheel which was falling apart. This is so decisive in comparison, it's lovely to use. ;D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

heraldcoupe Posted August 12, 2007 Share Posted August 12, 2007 A similarly styled Nardi wheel was pretty much standard fit at Maranello in the 1960s. That includes most of the classic Ferrari V12s in the 250 and 330 family.Cheers,Bill. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tim Bancroft Posted August 12, 2007 Share Posted August 12, 2007 I like the old Springlex wheels that fast Fords used to have.Still gotta be a Moto-Lita.Does'nt Roger's car's interior look good with those seats. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2litre-e Posted August 13, 2007 Author Share Posted August 13, 2007 i like those seats and the wheel. not sure i can have seats that don't recline as my driving postion requires the seat to be pretty laid back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GTRoger Posted August 13, 2007 Share Posted August 13, 2007 The seats are Corbeau Classics. They are still new available as far as I know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hollidaysc Posted August 16, 2007 Share Posted August 16, 2007 I started off with the leather covered shirt button, which drove me insane after having a full sized standard wheel on previous Spitfire.Swapped it for the wooden Astrali wheel (excuse the BL horn-push, has now been replaced by Standard shield). Wheel was only £40, about half the price of a Mountney from TSSC. Bargain Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
