Default Aftermarket (racing) steering wheels

There was a recent thread on the 996 GT board about the 996 cup steering wheel (momo mod 07). I think it's a great wheel and I've seen it on a few GT3s, both 997 and 996. I was wondering what people thought of the OMP superturismo (the 997 GT3 cup and RSR wheel). It seems nice, but it's only 320mm and doesn't have the classic look of the mod 07 (which looks like the older Porsche race wheels, I forget the name).

EDIT: The old wheel is the momo prototipo, I think it dates back to the 70s, which again is probably why the mod 07 is so dang cool.

A 320 is a nice size, that is what comes stock in the Elise and Exige. However, for the GT3 I would like to go for a 340; seems like a better fit. I know that FVD sells a bunch of them, most are 340. I also have a 280 Momo if you like; it is a little too small for the Elise, but still kind of like it.

I believe the GT3 wheel is a 380??? I know it is just a little bit smaller than the standard ugly v shaped ones, and you can also get it as an option in the regulare 997's, Boxster and Cayman. Must be avaliable for the Porsche too, I hope.
