MPI Touring Weatherproof Steering Wheel - 13" - Black
The GT Model is a multifunctional steering wheel.
Safety is always in the forefront of all MPI products. The inner structure has been engineered to deform under elevated impacts, absorbing the load and reducing the effect on the drivers upper body, offering an engineered safety advantage. The inner foam injection has been developed to have the highest vibration absorption rate in the industry. The special oval shaped grip makes holding the wheel a natural feel for the driver. The new aluminum D shaped structure features a unibody with no horn button for increase rigidity and durability and a flat bottom for extra leg room and easy exit adding a sporty look to the unit.
2 different covering materials, Suede and Pixel that both feature the MPI Orange -™ center marker, are offered. The selected suede covering and its parallel MPI Orange -™ hand stitched finish, give a very high grip feel, reducing the effort needed to hold the wheel while increasing driver feeling and giving a sporty look. It is a preferred material for track and tuning use. The full black version features black suede, black stitching, and black MPI marker giving the evergreen “NERO” look suitable for any vehicle color combination. The Pixel (PX) covering is an extreme weather, washable material and its MPI Orange -™ crossed stitching is a preferred material for outdoor and off-road usage.
Each wheel is individually serial numbered for traceability and comes complete with the MPI love and attention to detail.

In MPI we take every aspect of construction and safety to our heart, in the most accurate and dedicated way possible. Before becoming an MPI product, our structures need to pass our internal quality control tests. Amongst the many, one is a torque structural steering wheel test that is considered one of the most severe on the â??road carâ?_x009d_ market. Another is a stress test to see what our steering wheel does when load is applied to it. This simulates what happens when you keep your hands on the steering wheel during a severe impact. Just couple of examples of how our technology works and how safety and construction R&D is applied to all MPI products.
