I have the TSW stock, with the stock 10.5 " wheel, and I am thinking about getting the $70.00, 13" wheel from Thomas. Would any of you guys care to comment on the "upgrade". Is it worth the $70.00.? Is there a better, third party wheel replacement that would work better and install just as easily? Used mostly for N2002 sim, and occasionally for GPL. Will it make me "run faster and jump higher?" Thanks ABE
You can buy the "cup" style Grant wheel from Jeg's for $20. It's the same as the 10 inch wheel they use stock for $50 less. http://www.jegs.com/cgi-bin/ncommerce3/ProductDisplay?prrfnbr=9472&prmenbr=7 6 Dunno if it will make you faster, but I use a 12 inch wheel, and like it much better than the 10 inch.

I used the 12 1/2" wheel and like the 14 better. Have a look at my site below under controllers.
