Re: Steering Wheels
I actually really like the factory 67-68 style wheels. I finally broke down and bought one of the repos (Yes, $$$) but it's actually a really nice wheel. Unfortunately, they're only available in black right now.
They're also a little smaller, the 67-68 wheels are +/-16.5" and the 69-72 are +/-17.5".

Re: Steering Wheels
Dogue, Econman - after the factory wheels, that one is about the best looking one that can go into these trucks imo. Nice when color coordinated too if the column paint color is the same as the interior metal color (in a non-black truck).

Re: Steering Wheels
Good call! For non-black truck, I think a black rim wheel looks fine with a black column (ala factory tilts) and I think a color rim and column that matches interior color is also a good way to go. Not a fan of black wheel with different color column or vice versa. Just my personal 2c. I've seen the aftermarket blue version of the wheel you're talking about and I think it will look awesome with your blue column/interior.
