I am going to buy a momo mote cralo steering wheel. I am torn between what size to get. I know the 350mm will be as big as stock but I want something a lil smaller a 330mm would be ideal for me. The monte carlo comes in a 350mm and 320mm is the 320mm going to be too small? Any one with smaller than stock steering wheel size plz chime in I would liek to hear about your experience.

 

The difference in diameter between the stock size and the 320mm is only a little more than an inch - if you're thinking you might want to go smaller, an extra 10mm shouldn't make any difference.

 

I've been using a 300mm momo wheel for some time time now, and have used a 320mm SPA wheel before that. The 300 is a touch too small, and I think you won't be disappointed with the 320.

 

i have 330mm Nardi & love it.
i think its perfect for my height.

no blind spot w/ 330mm. here is a pic:

 

OEM is around 350-355mm, using 32 depends on the wheel design might block off the tach(more if you are tall)

 

Just picked up a Sparco Ring which is 330 mm. There is a bit more steering effort due to less leverage, especially noticeable at parking lot speeds.

That said, I actually prefer the increased effort as it feels more "race car" ish

Taller people may find the top of their tach blocked if they aren't in a lowered seat. Mine is about 2 inches lower and I'm 6 foot, and I can see the entire tach just fine with room to spare.

 

Are these dedicated track cars or are you guys just saying "screw the airbag, I'm invincible"?

 

I just ordered a 300mm Momo, have used while in Japan a 320mm Momo on all of my Hondas back there. Looking forward to the 300.

About the airbag, in my old 5R Integra it deployed on me once because some lady decided for some reason that my car was not where it was and turned right into my front drivers side, I tried to avoid going left up into an entranceway, but still she hit me and my bag deployed blocking my vision. I just remember trying to slap the thing away as I was heading for more damage with poles cemented into the ground. I stopped about 2 feet away from the poles. In my case the airbag did nothing for me at all and was more of a hinderance. I am not against safety, but at the same time I hate the preaching done by some and the government. If governments would actually not let people drive until they prove they actually can, all of these bloated down cars with safety features would not be necessary.

So to each their own, if you want your airbag so be it, but please don't preach to others about it. How long have cars not had airbags, how many traffic deaths still occur even with airbags today?

 

No question having an airbag with the factory 3-pt is the safest way to go.

However, I have a 5 pt. roll bar and 6 pt. harness installed in my car. There is no reason to have an airbag. Some people say it's dumb to have a roll bar on the street, but I see no possible way for my head coming in contact with any part of the bar in a crash.

My first car was an '87 300zx. It had no airbag but I wasn't worried. While having an airbag is nice, it is a luxury and not even present in older cars.

 

i like the way you put that
