e30 for President 0 Report post Posted November 9, 2016 After some unsuccessful attempts to find a e30 brand sports steering wheel (e30 360mm Mtech2 would be ideal!), im thinking of going for a after market momo option. I will look at going for a 350mm steering wheel. First of all I know this will be a nicer experience on the open road . But given that e30s don't have the best power steering i am wondering what it will be like more day to day, i.e. Round town, parallel parking, having to turn full lock so on. . My question is: Has anybody fitted a 350mm steering to a e30 and what was ur experience like? I don't want to spend a tone of cash to then discover its not practical & try to on sell them.

I find the opposite. My E30 has incredibly light steering, even compared to my E36. A smaller wheel was never a problem (had a 350mm on my racecar). 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
