This really isn't a place for a cheap $10 part since OEM wheels are carefuly designed to be strong enough not to break in daily abuse, yet soft enough they properly give in a wreck.
Yeah when I learned it was paper thin and read at the bottom of the listing that it was for "show purposes" only, I decided a Momo steering wheel will work just fine.
