  • want new steering wheel

    Im looking to replace my tiny aftermarket steering wheel for a bigger wheel. I will get a quick release kit and wheel to aid in getting in the car with the race seats. I have my seat up close to the wheel to give myself max performance. I find i can control it better when im a bit closer then normal.

    Anyway im looking for stock sized or even a hair bigger but not smaller. Whats the options.

        I cant recall now but the wheel that i bought is about the same size or a touch smaller. I wanted a bigger wheel but this wheel was in my price range.

        I went with all nrg stuff. I got the adapter, quick release, wheel , and locking device.

        I like it alot! Working great. I have done a few autocross with it. The quick release puts the wheel out towards you more. Which is great for me. I moveed my seat back some to make more leg room but still be up on the wheel.

            The wheel i have is 350mm. Its a good size. I would like to have 400mm but its ok. The 350 feels pretty nice. It helps that my wheels "ring" is a bit bigger then the stocks wheel. Its easy to hold onto.

              I don't think I have ever seen an Aftermarket wheel that is 400mm.

              380 is typically the biggest you are going to find, and even it is uncommon.

              360 & 365 will be the next more popular size

              350 is one of the "Usual" sizes, you will have tons of options in 350 wheels.

              320 & 330 are the other "Usual" sizes, but I wouldn't recommend such a small wheel in a Festiva, it's going to get hard to turn.

                Why would you want a wheel bigger than stock?

                  Just to make it a touch easier to steer. But really it does not need it. My 350 wheel is great!
