I thought the vented grip was more practical. The smooth leather gets shiny in spots from your sweaty hands polishing the leather.
It's very hard to keep uniform looking.
This is the 350mm Momo "Competition" wheel with Wilkinson's stainless steel quick release mechanism.
It's duller (reduced glare) finish stays more consistent looking. The leather is perforated and basically eliminates the need for driving gloves.
I HAD the LeCarra wheel in the car when I bought it. At some point it seemed outdated and after the quick disconnect became available it was for sure a goner.
