Default 300mm steering wheel too small?

I see plenty Momo wheels that are 350mm. The one I like is 300mm. Is a 300mm steering wheel too small for a 928?

Thanks

I also looked at a 300 MM wheel and discussed it with Dave Roberts, luckily I listened to him and he talked me out of it and into the 350 mm size.

I've been running the 350 for the past 2-3 years and it is perfect. Don't go to small, I think you'll regret it. You still need to leverage these beasts on occassion.

Regards,

Ken

I went to a smaller wheel a few years ago. The choice seemed to be between a 350mm and the 320mm. I found the 320mm was just too small for comfort, but the 350mm didn't seem to feel all that much different from the stock. I found an OMP wheel that was 330mm as I recall, that I really like. Gives the car an entirely different feel and is one of my favorite mods. The top of the wheel is virtually level with the top of the pod. It does cut off a clear view of the entire gas gauge and voltmeter, but they can be seen with a slight tilt of one's head, and I don't watch them alot anyhow.

The 350mm is about 1" smaller than the stock wheel, and it does make a difference. I think 300 would be too small. I was worried that the 350 would seem too big, but I'm glad I didn't go smaller.
