Don't know about this specific one (other than the company has an excellent reputation) but I have not had aproblem with flat bottom steering wheels and in fact I like them.

I have the D bottom wheel and carbon insert on the way to me from Carrivagio. He's great to work with and while expensive the quality of his stuff is incredible. I really like Andrew6's wheel though as well and if price is an issue I'd probably go that direction.

I'll post pics when I get it in, next week sometime I assume.

Ooooh can't wait to see the pics, Doc! That'll stand out nicely in the interior.

If one was going the flat bottom route how would the core work? Do we just keep our airbag and send the wheel back to them? Or send our wheel, they add the red and just switch our airbag over to the new wheel? I'm so confused?? Probably just stupid!

I'm not sure how Andrew is working his wheels, but with Caravaggio you simply buy the wheel and send the core back to him when you change it over. I think some guys will charge a "core charge" that's refundable once you return the old wheel.

Kalahari Premium D style wheel.

Looks nice Andrew! Well done.
