I would check sites like Tirerack.com com for their comparaison of the A/S, PSS and DWS. Then it is only a question of how much you want to spend.

When dealing with a non BMW parts dealer for parts I usually call or email first and ask if the part(s) is in stock, less and less companies keep stock on their shelves, too much investment.

I have to correct myself : per the 2001 roadster sales brochure the M steering wheel came standard with both the 2.5L and 3.0L, nothing to do with the sport package. Pima is right.
