snap off
 

Does anyone have a snap off steering wheel??

Any pics please.... my oe wheel is a little tatty and is very big imo... or I am very small... hmm!

I think it would improve security and I prefer smaller wheel.

Any tips or combination of wheel and boss would be helpfull

Do you mean quick release?

Works Bell do the best snap off boss/hub in the market. NRG also do a Works Bell copy but I understand that the NRG is an inferior product as there is some slight play when the snap-off is mated to the hub. Sorry, no pics as mine is not fitted yet. I would stick to a 350mm wheel diameter personally.

Or that yes :-) see you knew what I meant ash :-)

Here is my 350mm Personal neo grinta with a Snap Off (yes the Swedish original) quick release :)

I was thinking this... 300mm

Probably going to block a lot of the tachometer.

Point well made! Can hear it though :-)

Can someone explain to me what advantage you have in doing this, other than the anti theft aspect? Because, to me, removing your airbag seems like a pretty stupid thing to do!

Advantages of an aftermarket wheel are that you get to pick the size and shape that fits you and is optimal for the sort of driving that you're doing.

If the car is designed with airbags and SRS, then if you remove the airbags, you need to think about going for 4 or 6 point harnesses, IMO...

The idea of a "snap-off" or quick release steering wheel is that, for single seaters, kit cars and vehicles with full roll cages including door bars, it's impossible to get and out with the steering wheel fitted. Hence removable steering wheels.

Putting a quick-release aftermarket steering wheel into an otherwise stock car is just chavvy to the max, not to mention less safe.

It's not an effective security measure either - just use a pair of mole grips! Plus with some qucik release systems, you need to remove the steering lock in order to fit them.

It's a boy racer thing, unless you actually NEED it.
