Do you have an aftermarket steering wheel?

I'm curious what style of steering wheel I want and I'd like to see what you guys have. I personaly like the kind with the flat bottom portion on the wheel. Since I don't have tilt or any comfort feature like that I figure I should get something that gives me some leg room.

I looked through the Momo wheels and didn't see one with a flat bottom that I liked.

I kinda like this one though. (grey one)

Which one is that? I didn't see it in the line up.

I like the trek one in black. I just have to paint the other silver pieces grey.

Don't you need a hub to mount these wheels? And aren't they removeable? Or is that just in my F1 dreams?

Vipers stock Tach does not work. when he converted from N/A to turbo that is one of the things that wound up not working.

The concept of my car is not going to be cheap by any means. From the front to the back. I know it's just a steering wheel. But APC seats are knock off Sparcos. "It's just a seat." I won't be putting APC seats in my car. Etc...

You DO realize that the stock tach face is about 1/2" bigger than the autometer, right?

So what size steering aftermarket steering wheel do you have to buy in order to maintain clear view of all gauges? I know it isnt totally dependent on size but also on the distance from the cluster measured by the thickness of the hub?
