Smaller steering wheel?
Hey all I am going to ditch my stock steering wheel (1987 N/A) For price reasons I will be going with a Grant Wheel. I am trying to decide between a 12inch vs. 13inch. My dad told me that I should stick with the 13 so that I won't be over correcting all the time (smaller wheel means your hands move less than on a bigger wheel?) Could you guys give me some pro&cons of either?

get a real small one like the gangsters in the early 90's then lower ur car to the ground get tires that stick out past the fenders and paint a aztec picture on ur hood then you'll be cool lol i donno why i said that but the idea of a smaller steering wheel reminded me of it

I have a Momo Race 320mm wheel. Very nice wheel. I like it much better than the tractor trailer sized stock wheel. The stock wheel was too skinny. The one I have now is extremely comfortable in my hands.

Yo,
I've got the Sparco 383 Suede in 330mm...just know that you won't be able to see **** for gauges. 4 of the 6 gauges will be blocked by the wheel. I don't have a tilt wheel, so that doesn't help either.
