EMPI 14.5" Classic Foam Steering Wheel | Drilled Chrome Spokes, 4" Deep Dish (79-4114-0)

The EMPI 14.5" Foam Steering Wheel offers a classic high-performance look with an emphasis on driver comfort and leverage. A generous 4-inch deep dish brings the rim closer to the driver — a popular setup for off-roaders, drag racers, and tall drivers looking to optimize their seating position.

The rim is finished in a durable, firm poly-foam that provides an excellent "tacky" grip so your hands don't slip during spirited driving. The three-spoke center is chrome-plated with weight-saving drilled holes for that iconic 60s and 70s competition aesthetic.

Vehicle Fitment

This is a universal 3-bolt wheel. A vehicle-specific adapter (boss kit) is required to mount it to a factory steering column.

  • VW Beetle / Ghia: Via 3-bolt adapter (street / Cal-style)
  • Meyers Manx / Buggies: Via 3-bolt adapter (all-terrain)
  • Sand Rails: 3-bolt shaft / quick release (off-road / racing)
  • Baja Bugs: Via 3-bolt adapter (heavy-duty steering)

Key Features & Benefits

  • Extra Deep Dish: The 4-inch offset provides clearance for your legs and positions the wheel for better steering leverage.
  • Firm Poly-Foam Rim: Comfortable, non-slip grip that resists heat and is easy to clean after a day in the dirt.
  • Classic Styling: Drilled chrome spokes deliver a timeless "California Look" for any vintage air-cooled interior.
  • Standard 3-Bolt Mounting: Compatible with standard 3-bolt adapters, quick disconnects, and aftermarket steering shafts.
