Ya, my good buddy has one of the sparco ones in his 99 miata and it looks like the real thing. As a matter of fact, I didnt even know it was a knock-off untill he told me. I have been meaning to get one for myself, I just havent gotten around to it yet.
i have one that is like it, and once i got it to fit, it looked good. But i live in AZ and it gets 9,000,000 degrees in your car. The wheel i have had partial rubber grips and they started to ooooze out some kind of resin lookin stuff that was real stickey.. it looked good up until that point.
i think i got that exact one for the new miata. i was expecting somthing not very nice. it is durable and well finish stiching is nice and its a great size and the ergonomics are good too. i threw away the horn button haha and just left it open i highly recommend it.

Becareful with alot of those Ebay wheels. You'll find them soon flexing. The top half will begin to get loose and flex forward/back. Ive seen it happen to a few locals.
Its hit or miss though....
If you want a nice "cheap" new wheel... check for dealers carrying the momo Tuner... its a cheap version of the higher end Corse. Great wheel and almost the cheapest Momo wheel (except for the monte carlo).

Are the knock offs like quick release w/ hubs or do they bolt into the existing setup? To be honest I've bought the knock off seats..and they get constant compliments...can't kill me to buy a cheapo wheel.. cause I sure as hell dont want an air bag
i just cant justify spending 150+ on a steering wheel, thats like spending 700 on a seat and 100 for a shift **** thats just retarded.
my quick release is the same thickness as the adaptor hubs. the difference i believe is in the wheel depth.

My last wheel was a momo tuner... great wheel and I loved it. The miata is getting a tiny momo team though, i got it for about 60bucks in trade.
A nice wheel is worth it... mid 100s is my cutoff though.
If you have ever sat in a 700 dollar seat you would know why it's 700 dollars.
if i had all the money in the world id go all out on everything,but since i am not rich i have to find my areas to cut my corners and i feel that the seats and steering wheel is two sections that i can skimp on. so i am just saying the ebay wheels are impressive for the money they cost.. .thats all i am saying not looking for a 50 post arguement.
