Which steering wheel is the best?
I'm wondering which steering wheel is the best out of the ones I know about. I'm considering getting one of them. I like the look of the suede ones but unsure of the quality of the suede if it's not Alcantara. It would also be nice to have a smaller diameter one. This means I'm leaning towards the Cusco suede and JPM Coachworks.
Posted prices are from RallysportDirect, JPM Coachworks, and Japan Parts's web sites.

I have a Prova steering wheel installed on another car and it's great but I like the feel of TRD better on my 86.

Yes, relatively reasonable for a TRD part.

I have the Prova and I am really satisfied with it. It's covered in Alcantara and has held up great since I installed it. Feel is night and day compared to the stock one.

Yes. Part of what I'm looking for is a wheel with suede. I'd prefer to have one that's also smaller diameter as well while retaining oem stuff like the airbag.

One thing I'm wondering is if the Cusco suede is as nice as the Prova's Alcantara.

I received my JPM Coachworks wheel a few days ago. I have sent a good number of things to them over the past year or so, and I have yet to be disappointed in their work. I did all black Alcantara, with red stitch, and the optional increased thickness. I could've added the center marker, it was a coin toss on that, all black won.
It is perfect! (IMO) Looks fantastic, feels fantastic, and a quality job. I wouldn't hesitate in recommending them. They are open to custom requests as well.
