Sports Steering Wheel

Post by J340GLT »

Hey All

Decided to invest in a new sports steering wheel for my J Reg 340. What size would you recommend I go for? The standard steering wheel is 15" isn't it? Only reason I ask is because I remember Carl saying the 13" was too small. 3 spoke Mountney a good choice? Boss kit comes with it.

Would be good to get your opinions..

Cheers

Jay

OK so 15" it is as i do want to see my dials LOL.

That is the steering wheel im going for however it hasnt got the red bit, which I wish it did, as my Blue one is more like a redline now. Will put up some pics as soon as i can of my other dark grey 340.

Cheers for the interest!
