Steering wheel suggestions? Thu, 30 June 2005 03:35 Go to previous message
I'm looking for a new steering wheel. At the moment I only have the stock MA61 wheel, and maybe it's just me but it feels like I'm driving a bus when I try to turn the wheel fast on counter steers etc., and the moulded style of grip just feels horrible and unstable (it has little ribs all the way 'round).

I haven't yet found a Momo steering wheel that I like, or a Sparco. I'd seen a few Isotta's that looked interesting, but still not perfect, and they are proving near impossible to get a hold of (went to the local racing gear shop, and was informed that they had *never* even heard of Isotta). Autobarn wheels just make me laugh.

I would like a wheel without mouldings at all, or at least not on the outside; I don't want to feel the dips and curves of the different 'sections' of the wheel, as you would in this one;

Even the most simple Momo steering wheel I could find had crazy moulding bulges at the bottom;

I'd also prefer 320mm and not 350mm, leather and not polyurethane...and certainly not a D or hex shape..

Something like this would be perfect if it wasn't for the separation of the top part of the grip;

Isotta's Desert and Rally wheels appeal to me fundamentally, but not visually...if I'm going to be coughing up half a grand for a steering wheel, I'd like it to be perfect.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated Smile
