Steering wheel swap.

Will the airbag off my standard wheel fit on a sport steering wheel? Any help will be appreciated.

Well I think I may have a sport wheel installed already. Looking at pics of standard steering wheels and mine has the thumb rests. This is a sport wheel right?

Check realoem.com. I think you'll find that there are different part numbers. My sport wheel has paddles.

Not all sport wheels have paddles. And there are two main versions of sport wheels, sport and m-sport. Then you have to look at what other options you have: heated or not, paddles or not, vibration/lane assist/etc or not. So there are 16 variations of the "sport" wheels out there for the F25 X3.

But yes, if you have the thumb rests you have one of the versions of a "sport" wheel. Pics are helpful.

yes, you have a sport wheel, just not an m-sport wheel. I think the m-sport wheel might be slightly thicker, but not by much if at all.
