Go with the 2nd, one the 1st one looks like a piece of carpet wrapped around a circular piece of metal.

If you have to get one of those, get the second one. Personally I'd just save up a bit more and get an S2k, EP3, prelude SH, RSX or CTR wheel, because they look better AND have airbags...
All of those wheels are so expensive...:-(

Just gonna bring up a one quick point. Not trying to bum anyone out or anything.

Steering wheels are not cheap for a REASON. They are what you smash into when you hit something. A cheap one might just break and send a sharp rod of (cheap) steel into your chest. Now i know we all have different ideas of what fun is around here. But a sucking chest wound is NEVER FUN!!!!

Just something to think about the next time you go out for a drive with a knock off steering wheel. Happy times!

Stay stock, they have airbags. The S2000 one has an airbag, and theyre badass too.

I've always wanted to change my steering wheel... But I've had my life saved by an airbag so I'll stick with what I got.

I am actually looking to get a new steering wheel myself. But as everyone else has said save up and get a OEM one with an airbag. seatbelts are not meant to save a life by themself they must be used in conjunction with airbags

While the airbag-less ones may look sweet...I don't think (hope?) that anyone would be dumb enough to get one. I was just saying that the cool looking ones are a little expensive.

Maybe I'll just get a cover...

I'm bagless. But not in the civic. My 4 door doesn't have bags. Of course it's tubbed out and doesn't have a front or rear bumper either. Just the bumper guards. I'll probably go bagless in the Civic. I'm not going to be pushing that much power that I'd head on at any great speeds. Speedlimits are also slower here and not as much safety in the glass and all. Eh it'sall personal preference.

If you do get a cover, get a wheelskin not a cheap loose fitting thing
