Why Type of Steering Wheel is this? Baffled..

[Kaikane40]

Hello All,

 

I have this steering wheel and hub on my 1976 2002.  I can't find a brand on it.  Any of you in know know what this is and value?  I am looking to sell it and would like to price it right.  Thanks in advance!

Looks like the Petri on Page 6

Looks like an original Petri wheel. The odd bolt pattern is a giveaway. It should have the number ‘35’ and the “P” wheel logo stamped into the back of one of the spokes, inside by the hub.

 

They can fetch crazy money nowadays..

It's a terrible steering wheel.  I'll take it off of your hands and dispose of it properly...

That is BMW/ Petri steering wheel with the proper phillips head retaining screws generally sold with the Euro sport package cars as well as over the BMW Parts departments.

Values today depending on condition like yours conservatively If the grip is not spinning around the wheel rim some grain left on it 650/750 +- 200.

Hi All,

 

I really appreciate all the comments on this one.  Whats weird is I don't have the "53" and "P" stamp on the rear of this wheel.  Take a gander....everything else looks like a Petri wheel per links/comments.  I don't want to misrepresent this wheel.  Maybe some didn't come with the stamps but I need to find out....

 

Cheers!

Phil

This one, from same seller as the 4K wheel, has no spoke markings either…

Thanks for this...I found another source that said early steering wheels don't have stamps on them.

What's the diameter of the wheel?

 

Is the grip spongy or hard? I could be interested.

[Kaikane40]

The wheel is in great condition. Firm grip, doesn’t spin when you twist it. It’s 14 inches so 350mm. Hub, horn button included of course.

I have one just like that but when I asked, everyone said that it was an MGB wheel     They look exactly like this with no markings     so if yours is a Petri, then mine must be as well??

 

Thanks, Rick

Post a bunch of pictures to validate like what I did. 

[stephers]

But there is no validation that your wheel is a Petri, no markings.   Lot's of wheels look like a Petri but without markings how can you be 100% sure??

Can you provide links on which wheels look like Petri but are not?  I would like to compare them to the one I have. I have searched.
