Show us your steering wheels

I'm in need of a smaller wheel for my MY99 impreza. Not sure on what might look/feel right, so i'm in need of some photos.

cheers

I've got a Momo Jet 320mm wheel in my car and It's so much better than the Nardi "Bus" steering wheel that was in my classic. Thats what size I'd recommend without adoubt

I've had a few wheel sizes, the Prodrive (350mm) feels the best, the 330 blocks some of the gauge cluster and feels too small IMO.

i know my cars a newage but you get the idea.lol. i went for a 350mm omp wrc with 70mm dish. perfect for me. pm me if you want more pictures.

dan

p.s, the red button on the steering wheel is the push button start, which i moved from the switch console a few days after fitting the wheel, which is why some of the pics dont have it on the steering wheel. hope you get what i mean lol.

dont ever just remove the bulb. the airbag system will then have a fault. not good. i got a vehicle specific hub kit from japan. came with resistors for all the airbags. perfect fitment.

Ive just sold my retrimmed STI8 wheel and now going for a removable item.

Looking for a nice WRC style suede wheel, cant decide on dish or flat?
I know i should wait till i have the hub installed and then measure for the correct dish but ive got the itch.

Can i please have some feedback on the Sparco/ momo wheels. OMP's ive seen are poor quality and im not up for these JDM drift jobbies.

Any opinions appreciated
