Very nice 👍
That looks similar to the one I fitted to the removable optimill boss...really like it, but I had an even smaller wheel on a removable boss that also fits perfectly.. And was surprised to find I really like it as well.. So now I swap them over from time to time.. Still can't make my mind up which one suits me best..

Both very nice - similar to my set up 👍

Definitely a better ‘drive.’

@andy63, the larger one looks much nicer imo.

Where did you get the LR badge in the center?

That’s a nakatanenga leather steering wheel centre.But at £50 it’s not cheap

That’s a Momo Tuner 350mm in black with a nakatanenga leather steering wheel centre but without the additional Momo outer centre ring fitted

It looks better proportioned I think as well.. but I really enjoy the small wheel.. Just seems to come to hand very nicely👍

Does the smaller wheel not get in the way of fully seeing the Rev counter and Speedometer dials.

The only thing I've noticed is that the indicator lights are covered in my normal driving position.. But the rest is ok...
At around 5'6" I'm not that tall.. That might help👍😂

Sparco... I like a round steering wheel.
Its suede that unfortunately didn't last a week...
