The unicorn of steering wheels... I have been looking for one since 2003. I finally got it last summer. After spending many days behind the wheel of a 911 with a small diameter Momo wheel, I decided that was the direction I wanted to go with my car, for now.

This wheel was in the M1 and E12 M535i. Try finding one.

This wheel is in need of some serious TLC. New Motorsport Roundel, new leather, and a new sleeve around the hub. Believe it or not, the Roundel is still available from BMW for a reasonable price (under $20).

$200 + shipping OBO.

This is THE RAREST BMW wheel of our era...

As Josh said, just try finding one.

Only put in the M1 (yes, the M1) and the E12 M535, two not very common cars...

This can be recovered by Alan Gunn or other guys....

If you want to sport the most unobtanium wheel in your car, THIS IT IT!!

Recovered yes, but I would not do business with Alan Gun (AGLA). I was severely disappointed with the recent business that I did with him.

BTW, very cool steering wheel.

Cheers,

Chuck

I'd never have them do a steering wheel of mine, either. They can't even do the Momo stitching.

Who would you guys recommend as I'm thinking of having my m-tech 1 recovered soon.

Yeah, I have a M-Tech wheel that I want recovered also. But I am for sure not going with Alan. I am on the search also.

Damn. one of these came up on my local ebay for $100.. should've bought it..

...Yeah, I have a M-Tech wheel that I want recovered also. But I am for sure not going with Alan. I am on the search also.

Check with American Stitches, now Craft Customs.

All this talk has me thinking... I just sent an email to the upholstery guy to see if he is up for the challenge whenever my Alpina wheel is finished.

Some of their examples look iffy, the leather is really smooth too. Anyone actually use them that can vouch for the quality?

Bump far an awesome wheel.

A buddy had them do the wheel for his award-winning 2000tii touring. Looks great. You pick the proper leather for your recover.

This guy recovered my E12 M535i wheel a few years ago and he sourced the kit from AGLA. It took him a while to get the right fitting leather recovering kit as I recall.

AFTER:

Nice stitch job, but I don't like it around the spokes. How does it look on other wheels?

Wheel still available?
Bump to the top.

What would the alternative be around the spokes?

Just dropped this sucker off to be reupholstered. The sale is on hold until I get it back. If you're still interested, please let me know and I will save your info for when I get it back. I may still decide against using it.

Adam,
The last time I had someone contact Blaine to do a wheel he was taking some time off.

Bump. It still hasn't been recovered... at this point I would like to sell it to fund another purchase I am about to make. I adjusted the price in the original post.

PM me if you're interested.

coarse thread?

Yes. It is coarse spline.

Okay guys, I know this thread is very much dead

But I have just got my hands on one of these, does anyone know the part number for the motorsport badge by any chance? or where I could get one?

My BMW dealership hasn't a clue of what im talking about.

Yeah, I edited the original post, pulling up the E26 diagram first. The M1 diagram had the badge labeled as #2, but I had the part # right! Sorry for the confusion.

that badge goes for $19 from pelicanparts

He ruined my HARTGE 380mm not too long ago after a 7 to 8 month wait....I figured it would be worth the wait....NOT !!

Who did? AGLA?

the stitching and texture of the leather...if you can call it that is really piss poor.....Hartge wheels are hard to find and was not pleased with his work.

i just wish Momo still made 380mm wheels, i put a 350mm montecarlo on the 6er in the interim and its just tooo small for e24 e28 cars in my humble opinion....especially with our lovely non racknpinion steering set up....

Is that the wheel you got from Mike? If so, it is the original to B9 #436.

As Moose asked, who is HE?

AGLA

wasnt the steering wheel from Mike...

I purchased a euro 635 in 2006 with a bunch of hartge goodies...installed by active autowerks in the late 80's from what i can tell....

headers, sway bars, steering wheel....wish she had the cam cover too.....

If you still need that steering wheel badge, I have one, $20 shipped.
