Edwin,

IMO Motolita make the best wheels by far. They are handmade and you can get
them with Woodrims, flat spokes, dished spokes, leatherbound, plastic badged
horn pushes, billet alloy badged small & large pushes, billet boss kits etc.
They are not cheap however..

For the MGA I think you may be able to even source a copy of the original
woodrim ST wheel. If I was getting a wheel for my A, I  would go for a 15"
woodrim motolita with dished spokes to increase the clearance between wheel
and gearstick. If you search for Motolita you will find a link to a US
dealer. I ordered mine direct from Motolita in the UK on +44 1264 772 811
because I'm in Ireland and also the wheel I choose is special order only.
Perhaps they can send you a catalog.

I will be getting my Leatherbound Mk10 Dished wheel for the V8 in a few
days, can hardly wait! This is my second Motolita and they are always works
of art! :)

Cheers,
Neil

> I was looking to replace my beaten up original steering wheel on my MGA
with one of those listed in the Vicky Brit catalogue.   I was thinking of
the leather bound with polished spokes.   They come come with center hubs
with the MG logo.   Anyone have any experience with wheels or other other
recommendations?
