Damn thing doesn't want to load for me. HAHAHA

Nevermind, it finally loaded. If it didn't fit you could always make it. My friend bought one exactly like that for his truck (I know, stupid) and he made it fit, looks fine now.

Yeah I'd thought about that, but I haven't been able to find many aftermarket wheels with the bag. I was wanting something a little smaller than stock. Any ideas?

I don't have an air bag on mine. If you want you could always get 5 point harness.

This is true too. I do a lot of road course driving and the bulky wheel always gets in my way. Seats and harness are on the list to be installed soon, so you think that it's ok if I don't have the airbag?

To be honest with you I wouldn't even care. My car doesn't have an air bag in the passenger dash board or the steering wheel. I've been racing, doing a lot of turns, drifting, and what not without a airbag. If I get hurt or die then so be it, live each day as if it was the last day. But when I get my Cobra I was going to do that, racing seats, 5 point harness, and a steering wheel like the one you want.

My friend does track racing like some what nascar racers do and he doesn't have the right seat or seatbelt like they do, and doesn't have airbags.

Wow man, that is probably the worst advice I have ever read. Nothing more important than doing it safe when it comes to cars. If you don't care about your life and don't give a **** if you die thats fine, don't encourage other to follow you.

Zip- If it's your daily driver than I'd make sure it had an airbag. Nothing wrong with playing it safe. Too many shitty drivers out there.

Please don't come starting **** with me in other peoples threads. I do mainly burnouts, but never doughnuts. I will try and get pictures, well actually more of a video, but you're not going call it drifting. I have pictures, just not posting them for some odd reason. I honestly don't care if you believe me or not. I'm not here to impress people and look good, I was just pointing out that I'm stupid enough to do **** without airbags, not being safe.

Is the FR500 as bulky as the stock? I do most of my racing on Hallett Motor circuit and it has a lot of switchback turns. My problem is that I like the security feeling of sitting high and close to the wheel, but my arms are long and have a hard time getting around the wheel lol.

I think the fr500 is thicker than stock and has a perforated leather grip. So probably not what your looking for.

Yeah I have the same problem, but I might be a little bit bigger. I don't do track, so I would try and be more safe then not. My point of view was stupid, but I don't do what you do, and that will make a difference. I do know that the 5 point harness does save lifes. My friend had really nice fast import and litterly total the car, it saved his life. No air bags as well.
