2010 BMW M3  [4.27]
BMW Performance Steering Wheel Installed

I've been wanting this part for a while and finally pulled the trigger when Tischer had their holiday sale. I haven't had a chance to drive the car yet so I can't tell you how it feels BUT all I can say is it looks fresh to death! The installation was very simple with the proper tools.

Thank you Tischer for the awesome deal and fast shipping!

Here are some quick pictures I snapped.

They are just pedals to me.... I really don't have much to compare it to.

Looks great. I picked up mine ~6 months ago and it's very easy to keep fresh if you clean it with a wet towel and a toothbrush every couple of weeks (assuming you don't drive with filthy hands).

It feels great - wife jokes that I actually drive with both hands on the wheel more because I like the feeling. She may be right. But regardless, it's sized perfectly, doesn't get cold in the cold weather and is the cats meow on looks.
