I was concerned the wheel was going to be too close with the QR, but the stock wheel was so close to the dash it turned out not to be a problem. I missed the turn signal the first couple times, but other than that, no real problems with placement. The weight difference between the two wheels is pretty astonishing.
I didn't think the horn button through, because it can't be installed as-is with the QR. I could glue the button on the center of the wheel, but I kinda like the mechanical look of no button at all. I wish I'd waited to install the wheel before buying the horn button.

"Here, at last, is the cure for texting while driving. The millions of deaths which occur every year due to the iPhone’s ability to stream the Kim K/Ray-J video in 4G could all be avoided, every last one of them, if the government issued everyone a Seventies 911 and made sure they always left the house five minutes later than they’d wanted to. It would help if it could be made to rain as well. Full attention on the road. Guaranteed." -Jack Baruth
I'm still not convinced I don't want the lettering.

Letters! And after a quick read, holy cow I didn't know there were so many rules on how to properly letter your car.
