    They make some pretty cool looking wheels, been curious if the quality matches the price compared to some other aftermarket wheels.

    Good to know

        That's what I have in my car and personally I love it. One of the best steering wheels I've ever driven with!

          Renown Monaco Silver Motorsport

          I purchased the Renown Monaco Silver Motorsport. I received my steering wheel in the mail a few days ago. The package was in good condition when it arrived and all the contents inside were packaged very well. Inside the package they give you all the necessary tools to install your wheel. Only thing you will need is a 22mm to get your old wheel off. Installation is a breeze whether you know what you or doing or not. I spoke to Scott who was extremely helpful during the purchasing and shipping process. Speaking to him was hassle free and he answered my emails very fast. The wheel itself looks great in my opinion. I tried to bend it and manipulate it in different directions as others have stated here before and there is no give, it’s reliable. It has a great feel to it and at 350mm I feel it gives me more leg room. Overall I’m very happy with my purchase and will definitely recommend this wheel to anybody. For around $200 bucks I think it’s a great buy. Thanks to Scott and Renown!

                    I installed the same exact wheel on the iX last week!
                    great look & feel. Motorsport horn button came with from eBay.

                    A different Renown came with my S52 swap with QR. deeper dish. Good products…

                    i tried to do an eBay solid cast hub but sent it back. Horrid spline fitment. & similarly designed by Ireland handling time was too long so couldn’t go wrong w/Momo.

                      No return policy and shitty customer service. Would not recommend. Stick with momo, better quality and cheaper in some cases.

                        Renown steering wheels are sub-par quality.

                        Agree with above. Go with Momo or similar reputable brand at the same price point.

                          they must really suck, if it got Matt to come post here. :P

                          agreed, though, what an awful, typical scene kid product. meh. i'll stick with my 30 year old Momo wheel, that holds up infinitely better.

                            Wonder if the BMW horn button will work on a MOMO Prototipo... OG MOMO horn buttons with the BMW roundel are pretty rare and fairly expensive.

                              I've had 2 Renown wheels and they were great. I don't know what you guys are going on about.

                                FWIW Renown has some new steering wheels made in Italy. I'm just happy $300 gets us a massive product choice of new wheels.
