Stripe on steering wheel?

[jmatta]

Unless you do a lot of track driving, why would you want the stripe (other than for the look?) That is obviously tape, as a carbon wheel wouldn't have the stripe.

I use this quite often with novice drivers to keep them oriented on where the steering position is in relation to the front wheels...this and absolutely no shuffle steering. It's a great tool for teaching turn in and apex steering adjustments (too early, too late). As mentioned, some wheels have the leather stripe sewn in...I use yellow tape.

Yeah, I know...I'm a poseur..LOL. I just like it for the look, and would like to add a red stripe.

Hey, it's OK...I like the look. I found narrow tape in different colors at a craft store and purchased both yellow and red. I actually put the tape on my DD Jeep Gr Cherokee while my daughter was learning to drive; helped her understand the position of the front wheels, as well.
