So do you guys & gals think the m sport wheel will look's good with my interior or the standard looks better.

M sport looks better to me as well.

I'm a fan of the m performance personally

I made the change. My car has a beige console and the rest of the interior is black.

Looks better and more importantly it will feel great, unfortunately nothing can really save that interior though

I hate the M-Sport wheel. Its too smooth. Feels like fake leather. I miss my V's Alcantara wheel, but I sure ain't spending a grand for an M-Performance one.

Thanks for all the advise and it has helped making my mind up, M Sport it is .

Keep an eye out in the classified ads. I got mine for $500 in practically new condition from another member locally. Still steep, but certainly a lot easier to swallow than $1K

So installed the M Sport wheel and what a difference in feel and looks.

Just prefect .
