What steeringwheel diameter?!?!
I know everybody has his own preferences, but I would like to know which diameter steeringwheel would be best for a car engined Seven. Is 260 mm too
small? Is 300 too big? Is 280 perfect?
Any suggestions?????

260mm seems to be the most popular

Depends upon so many things
How wide are your front tyres ?
What rack are you using ? (quick rack needs more grunt to turn than standard)
How strong are you ?
Are you going to be just racing ie all high speed stuff ? or doing a lot of low speed parking at Tescos ?
For what its worth mine is 280mm D . With a standard Sierra rack and 195 section tyres it works fine and looks good ( well I think so anyway but then
I like 'em a bit bigger !.. oo er missus ! ))

Note to all: I really don't know when to leave well alone. I tried to get clever with the mods, then when they gave me a lifeline to see the
error of my ways, I tried to incite more trouble via u2u. So now I'm banned, never to return again. They should have done it years ago!

I once drove a 105E Anglia from Basingstoke to a little place called Wivelrod, near Alton, with a pair of 10" Molegrips clamped to the steering
column, as some kind folk had removed my nice new Mountney wheel while I was having a pint.
So that's the equivalent of a 250mm wheel.
Cheers, Rorty.
