320's are great. Perfect size but may cover the instrument panel.

Here is a pic of my 350mm Momo Race with a 1" spacer to bring it closer to me. It blocks the speedo from about 70 to 80. It is way better than a stock wheel. LTB MotorSports is one of the 2 US Momo outlets and has Momo closeouts you can at save alot on. I paid only $140 for the wheel which sells for $215 and also $25 for a $90 shift ****.

I've got a 350 with manual steering. Love it. I don't have line of sight to the top of the gauges anymor ehowever, unless I lean back slightly more, which isn't a problem. Enjoy it very much though, feels more firm over stock because of the lesser leverage.
