Default anyone has a momo s/wheel on his 996?

i have been looking around for 2-3 wks now looking for something that
help me to avoid having my knees too often agains the s/wheel.
the only solutions was suggested by a member here (thanks again). it is
the "xtend 55" hub/spacer to install with the original s/wheel!.
but that stuff costs 615 euro, same as a new OEM porsche s/wheel.
so, i was now considering these solution, but again, n.1 is a bit too expensive:
- changing the s/wheel with a smaller one (340MM, BUT WITH AIRBAG) made
by an EU tuner (gemballa, techart, ruf...). cost: 1300 euro more or less
- changing the s/wheel with smaller 340/350mm momo (or similar, BUT NO AIRBAG).

what do you think?

thanks

talk to dan at vivid racing, he can get you the PN for the correct hub for a 996 porsche. He's running a MOMO wheel at the moment too.

PN = short form for part number.

if you get the specific part number from him it will be easier to order.

there must be an equivalent hub that works for the 996, maybe a porsche motorsport hub.
like i said, dan @ vividracing can help you out.

www.vividracing.com
his number is on there.

I don't know if this matters or not but I believe he's running a Sparco wheel...

ah, whoops. My bad on that one.

In any event i called momo because i think i will use a MOMO wheel as well (i'm having trouble convincing myself to pay 1500$ for a steering wheel and airbag). MOMO told me it is part number 7004 for the Hub for a 1999 and up porsche 996 Carrera. Price is 88$Canadian.
