I like #2, what is the diameter of the wheel? I might get one myself. I like the one Tom's sells but I don't like the advertisement. It might be a small script but it is a big deal to me.

If I understand correctly Toms wheel actually reads:
Tom's on the left...
Bronco in the middle button...
and Parts on the right?
"Toms Bronco Parts" in total...?

Wouldnt that be as if the Lecarra if it said
Lecarra on the left...
Steering in the middle button...
and Wheels on the right?
"Lecarra Steering Wheels" in total...

For me both would be similar to just having on that says "Eat At Moe's" in flashing neon.

Product branding and advertising are two somewhat different things. Personally, I dont like that I cant remove Tom's advertising off of the wheel.

Man, I guess I'm not up with the times. I have the bronco script wheel from Toms - and it doesn't have his little advertising on it. Now that I see that, I got to say - I'm glad I have the one I do, and I d*mn sure wouldn't buy the one with his name on it - even tho my name is Tom - ...

That's a pathetic shameless plug that I don't need on my rig. And in case you think I don't treat all the same, all my Duffy shocks that have his name are either 1) painted over or 2) turned so no one can read 'em.....

When I get paid to promote their name, I'll gladly advertise for 'em.

It's funny how that actually works. When I used to race. If I won a race and got pictures taken, you would collect from the stickers that showed on the car in the picture. Or if you got in a magazine. I never made it that far. I was in it for the thrill.

I don't see what the big deal is with the whole Tom's thing.....it's not like the name is in neon pink or something...but it's a free country and just like Tom has the right to put his name on the wheel, and everyone also has the right to complain too.;D

Not complaining - just saying I wouldn't buy it - same part of that free country thing.

we also have the right to give our opinion of a product (may cause change may not) or not to buy it.

Enter cheep sh@t here---> "hotwheels, are you telling me that you STILL don't have this thing on the road yet?"

Just kidding, I know how it is. I keep telling my wife, "It's almost done honey."
