Steering Wheel options
Present wheel is a 14" air bag Momo which is a little too big, both in overall diameter and rim 'thickness'
I would like to go perhaps 1/2" smaller on dia to 13.5" (~340mm) which I have on my wagon and like
Can you recommend any suitable options
Only one I've seen so far which is a possible is the
Momo Jet
Also - how easy are they to fit, and get the self canceling stalks and everything else working properly? The one on my wagon never succeeded in getting the self canceling working properly
Thanks

Sounds about right
360/370mm ish
350 is perfect, get the right boss kit and the self cancel, air bag nonsense is easily over come

Was just thinking on the way home for lunch my Nardi Torino was just great. Can cross arms right over, one handed loop turning, small enough to drop low into lap, blah blah. And yes 53 - it's 350
The MOMO WRX one just doesn't do it
