Ok thanks anyway

what i do know is that our steering shaft seems to be different than most other years and models, and consequently most of the more common hubs don't work on our car.
Damn I, m having no luck in finding a boss hub



Thanks
like i said, only a few wheels will fit this car, due to the hub.

I've no hub

I need a hub
i understand. are you trying to fit an aftermarket wheel or the OEM wheel? an OEM hub should be easy to find. however, not many aftermarket wheels will fit the car, due to the splined shaft being different in the 968 than most if not all other models, which then requires a model specific hub. most wheel manufacturers do not make hubs or have hubs for our cars.

Yes I have bought an aftermarket steering wheel omp .



omp?



anyway, if the steering wheel manufacturer does not list a hub that fits the 968 that will work with that wheel, you likely have a nice item to hang on your wall. unfortunately it won't be the first time i've heard of this, and likely not the last either.
