^ You are right. A-Spec is not a 3 spoke. People have thought about the TSX wheel, but it is thinner around the rim. Plus you lose the bluetooth buttons.

does anyone else have as much of a problem with the 4spoke as I do?? Maybe not.....ive never had a car w/ a 4 spoke b4 this one, so its def new to me

ive found two major problems with the 4spoke compared to a 3spoke
1. When driving hard, it can be dangerously easy to grab at a part of the wheel that isnt open for holding, a 3spoke has much more area to grab and hold

2. When cruising, it can be quite difficult to find a comfy position to chill on the wheel...it just seems that with a 3spoke, you have more options on where youd like to get your hands comfortable

I've had no problems with the steering wheel at all. When "driving hard", my hands are on the 10 - 2 position and it's quite comfy there. what part of the wheel are you grabbing?

at cruising, I tend to have my hand at the left side and my elbow on the door arm or something.

Huh...don't have any problems driving hard...definitely don't have any problems cruising (quite a few comfy positions to switch between). Of course, most of my time driving is spent with one hand at 12 o'clock, which they claim is bad with air bags...oh well...

If your hands stay on the 10-2, you are deffinitely NOT driving hard. You are just cruising at a faster rate.

A 3 spoke just has more space to poke the fingers through and grab the wheel when in a hurry.
