I had a 15" wheel on mine and it was too big. I've just fitted a 12" wheel and it feels a bit small in my hands. I've had no
problem driving it in the 60 or so miles since I've had it but it doesn't seem right. I'll wait and see if I get used to it before
buyinga 13" wheel.
See if you can sit in a few peoples cars to see if they are comfortable, or make some cardboard templates and try them for size.

I have 12" but I don't use it as a rule
If you can keep you head, whilst all others around you are losing theirs, you are not fully aware of the situation

Kevin,
Whatever you decide to use, ensure you use the donor's wheel on during test as that was a failure point on mine - not radiused and incompatible
with column.

What did he mean by incompatible Simon?
Looking at the wheel in IWantOne's post it might even pass SVA with a little edging on the spokes (near the horn button) My Momo is nearly
identical so I am hoping I don't need to fit my Sierra backup.
Cheers,
Raz

I have an adjustable Sierra column, is there any way of setting this up so you can lift column up to get in and out?

Easier to get a quick release boss and whip the wheel off (good security deterrent too) - the Sierra column will only go up and down a couple of
inches.
