lets talk about: Steering Wheels!

[Guest Speedye30]

I hate the way the steering wheel in my car is so damn big! its bad enough that the steering is sloooooow let alone the big ass wheel.

380mm Dia.

Many cars I've driven have slightly smaller wheels. 370mm in the XR6 for instance. Now this may not seem like a big change, but it makes a world of difference!

Ideally I would like a momo, 330-350mm. Anyone got a momo going cheap?

What sort of wheels do you cats have?

[Gus 5]

hmm....agreed......very slow rack and big wheel is bus like.....im getting a sportline one this week....momo is very nice (ask grant) but $$$....i cant wait for the small one! andrews one is sportline as well

[E30-323ti 66]

I'm using a Momo Race and it is heaps better that the M-Tech bus wheel I had!!

Rack is still slow as buggery which doesn't help when you need to get to opposite lock real quick, aye Gus!!

ps. it's a 350mm

[Gus 5]

yes......had my share of much needed opposite lock not happening moments ...momo race= .....but im poor...sportline ones are pretty cheap....not that nice quality.....but might look at getting one recovered in suede.....depending on $$

This is me - its OK - can't see much of the speedo though - I want a Momo Race or Corse

[Grant 4]

I have a Momo Corse. It is perfect. There is no more to say about it than that. It does however slightly obscure your view on the top lhs of the speedo, but not too bad.

I hated the original BMW Wagon Wheel.

yes, it was a real toss up for me between the Race and the Corse. I went with the Corse baecause I had driven a car with one in and I really liked it...better the devil you know.

me and rob have the 3 spoke m-tech one.

wouldnt mind a go-kart wheel. very small, quick turn. but very heavy

[E30-323ti 66]

Good choice Grant.

Momo Corse is top of my list.

I don't actually own my wheel, just an "borrowing" for a "while"

It is a very comfy wheel, definitley a hard choice between the Corse & Race.

I'm also "borrowing" a lovely Momo Anatomico (long) shift knob, very nice!!

[OLLIE 26]

can i buy your old one off you glenn?

[Gus 5]

heres my new toy....got it today.....thanks to a certain someone for the hookup!

[dave 2]

That is pretty damn close to the Momo Corse.

Good score

Cheers

[dave 2]

[Gus 5]

[Grant 4]

Here we go...

[Guest hizza bizza]

a pic of his sister?

[Guest Speedye30]

Did I mention I had a boss kit with BMW horn button? lol

"Borrowed" my mates spare wheel last night, then went for a blat down a twisty road. It makes a load of difference! I still think the car is let down by the slow rack, if you need to get to opposite lock in a hurry!

Heres a picture!

[Grant 4]

I have the BMW horn button with my Momo wheel (it came with the Boss Kit).

I just have never put it on.

Cheers

[Guest Speedye30]

...

[Guest Speedye30]

I just have never put it on.

Yeah, that black button looks real nice though... As does your wheel, and your stereo, your car...

How much are the boss kits normally? And where can you get the boss kits from?

They are normally around $80 or so, and you can get them from anywhere that sells the steering wheels.

Cheers
