The a-spec steering wheel is thicker, has blue stitching, and silver perforated leather on the thumb rest.

Using the A-Spec wheel myself. I like it personally. It feels slightly thicker than the OEM wheel....but only by a very small amt. Now sure the experiences you are looking for? Its a steering wheel.....pretty much just a personal preference item. Any one of em is going to work as well as the other in this case, long as you like it!

I switched because at the time I was fruity about having the WHOLE A-Spec package including the steering wheel...so I bought the wheel from A of E on ebay. Is it worth the money....I would say so....but again...a subjective opinion. I like the blue stitching on it and the silver inlaid sections. They feel good to my hands and it works for me.

That looks really good. I wonder if they are going to reproduce these wheels with the new 3 spoke design that is on the 07's because eventhough I like these wheels a lot I really like the design of the 3 spoke.

Nope. Not heard any plans. They actually dropped the steering wheel from the "full" kit to begin with a few years ago.
