May be an obvious question, but what are the wheels that are on the sports?
Hard to come by etc?

early 2 spoke, haven't a pic to hand:roll:
Should be put in the bin IMO
Fooks knows why they put that horrible large bus wheel on as standard, 3 spoke SR wheel should of been on there

When I drove Steve's Sport with the big wheel the steering felt nice and light.

I knows this but im asking if this is the one that the op meant:p
Iirc they have the 3 spoke, and by the looks of them in pictures they have a suede ring.
Original or not, they are only fit for the bin. Strange that's where most of them ended up! lol

I do tend to agree;)
I like the one in the pic above.
So you sport guys spend silly money to get interior trim in the correct shade of brown then put the wrong steering wheel in? :wtf: lol
lol depends which way you look at it, I think GM put the wrong one in there in the first place lol

Lmfao, pretty sure you guys would be upset if someone GSi'd and XE'd a sprt and said that they thought GM had fitted the wrong kit and engine in it in the first place though:p

Ooh dear poor thing, mind you my mate inherited a sport that had been sprayed blue and had a GSi front bumper on it aswell, is the one you were on about the one that became mr Charlie's 4x4?

No it is another one, Charlie's Sport has been a Valver for many years, which he has now converted to 4x4 LET

I have one of these lying around in the shed I think.
Why go to the hassle of blanking off the radio, side air vents and loosing a speed of the fan to keep them 'original' then ditch the orginal wheel?
You sport owners are strange lol
