Before/After - Steering Wheels
 
I went ahead and got a black Prototipo. I've had the Competition wheel for a while and was looking for a change. The Comp wheel is very nice, thick and ergonomic, but the Prototipo just looks right.

I'm still deciding if I want to keep the Comp wheel if I want to switch back and forth or just outright sell it. With Momo's pricing increase just recently I'd hate to sell it and regret it.

Thoughts?

If you can afford to keep it, why not?
Makes for a nice change later on down the road as I suspect you'll feel like you're driving a new car with a swap.
Kind of like a second set of wheels, only YOU get to enjoy the change instead of everyone that looks at your car.

I love the look of the Prototipo!

I prefer the Proto, myself.

Mine is similar, a 370mm Abarth.

I like the Comp wheel better. As you mentioned, it's thicker and it just looks right in the 911 to me.

MOD series is the most ergonomic for me :)

I like the Competition wheel. Mine appears to be slightly different. Maybe an older style?

Another vote for the Proto.
Both are nice. I'd want to keep too.

I've always liked the look of the Prototipo, but dang it, it always reminds me of a '70s Trans Am!
