Doesn't Grant sell these directly without the Roush name stamped in them? I don't care for that part. That said, I suggest the suede insert. Perf. leather doesn't work if there's other leather in the cabin IMO.

Just my opinion, but I think the flat parts look goofy.

Reminds me of my VW GLI wheel. One of the only things I preferred on my VW over the mustang. The grant wheel will be on my car after a few other mods.

Looks odd to me, I don't see the point.

Now that I'm thinking of it I should have put a 4th option : the GT 500 wheel. Does anyone know if that's the same wheel that's in the new BOSS?

No the Boss is all suede and doesn't have a Sync button. GT500 is part suede and part charcoal leather...

It looks like from the original link, you can pop out the controls to fit any steering wheel. I prefer the GT500 to any of the Grant/Roush wheels myself.

Hmmm.... The Shelby wheel comes with all the controls so I could sell my regular wheel with the controls intact. I know you still have to reuse the airbag and steering wheel cover. I also like the Shelby wheel but didn't know if it was really that much different than the premium GT wheel.

With "Roush" embossed in the leather? Then let Jack Roush buy it for you! In my opinion for $379 you ought to get your OWN name embossed in the steering wheel!

The main difference is the white stitching and the palm swells are Alcantara instead of leather. Wheel is identical otherwise.

They sell for 30.00 cheaper without the Roush logo. I also like the Shelby wheel. I talked myself out of this once now the bug is back thanks to my tax return!
