RMD steering wheel

Nice looking and relatively cheap steering wheel. It is 255mm diameter and i am concerned if it's too small. IOn the other hand there is not much space inside so if i fit a larger wheel there is the danger that it will touch the driver's legs. Has anyone used it? Thanks!

It often comes down to personal preferences where steering wheels are concerned and mine is for one that size and style, having raced with a similar one. I will be fitting one like that post SVA.

Have you a link to that one?

Another consideration is your gauges and switches, plus possibly paddle shift. I have just changed to a larger wheel to give a better view but you need to make sure everything else is still usable.

I like those, especially as they are about 1/3 of the price of a Momo.

i'm using a similar 250mm wheel and really like it.
it may have to go though if i stick with my plans of a digidash as it would block the shift lights
