Default Ebay Racing Steering Wheel

I am looking for a steering wheel and I found a realy cheap on and hub adapter on ebay. The wheel is 16 + shipping and the hub is $5. I was thinking you get what you pay for but I heard good things about the sellers of both items so I don't think there will be a problem but also they said that the steering wheel is rapped in real leather and I don't think one made of real leather would cost $15.95. What do you guys think?

Oh I forgot, heres the links:

Cheap hub adapter = very bad idea. Spend the money on a quality one. Sparco, Momo, Grant. Don't cheap out on the hub adapter.

That wheel should be fine, and a sparco/momo hub would be fine.

Lol... Dead thread. Anyway I bought an ebay wheel and a sparco hub. Works out great aside from not having a place to put the cruse control buttons now.

is your aftermarket wheel smaller than stock? is it true you lose power steering?

It is smaller than the stock wheel, lets you turn faster because you don't have to move the wheel as far. Downside is that I cannot see the 1-2.5 numbers on my tach anymore because the wheel is in the way, no big deal (This is from my point of view, some people may not have this problem. Depends on how tall you are). You don't lose your power steering it is just SLIGHTLY (barely noticeable, I like it) harder to turn the wheel due to the wheel being smaller so you don't have as much leverage.
