No im not the only one but you can imagine most of them have stock steering wheels. That's not the only reason I got it. I like the look and its extremely lightweight compared to stock. But you do sacrifice the Airbag

This is my favorite one, but at the 500$ price its a bit pricey for what it is. Thicker with a red stripe at the top would be the one for me!

I haven't found any other alternatives to this without replacing the airbag, which is not something I want to do.

You can always have a company like jpm wrap your stock one and add that line.

I was considering it, but wouldn't be the consistent thickness throughout the wheel :/

Having the stock wheel rewrapped in momo leather with the strip would make me happy. Probably be less than the TRD

I've heard a lot of people complain about the Trd one because it doesn't have the thumb indents.

If I could I would by a fully carbon fiber one without the airbag as light as possible. Of course I don't think I can in Mass. I should probably check on that though, I hate airbags.

the yearly inspection place will know. In mass they get to hook the computer up to the car. It is extremely intrusive. It is almost impossible to fake or switch cars, etc.

The steering wheel can easily be swapped takes 15-30 minutes.

No one will know until you get into a crash and be D-E-D.

Haven't heard any from reviews, I'd like to think I'd prefer it.
