Quick Release Steering Wheel

Hey guys, I'm just curious of any suggestions for aftermarket steering wheels and quick release hubs. Im 5'11 and 220 lbs and the stock setup rubs against my legs and doesnt allow for much movement. Any recommendations?

No personal experience, but this is a recent thread in the 3rd Gen Tech section....

Some older threads found using terms 'release steering wheel' in 3rd Gen. Tech using titles only (there's probably more using different terms or in the Race Car tech section)....

Don’t have any recent pictures but I used a Sparco R345 wheel. It’s a 63mm Deep dish 350mm overall wheel coupled to a Sparco Quickrelease. I’m currently 6’-0ish 200lbs and it is perfect on me. I’ll grab other updates pics for you later next week...
