    Different brands of steering wheels use different hubs. Do you have the wheel?

        Nardi, Momo, Grant - they're different.

          No name wheel. Just a 45 dollar eBay wheel I want to throw on for when I decide to sell it

              Exactly what brand of hub does that steering wheel require? The bolt-hole spacing is often different on the various brands (my old Nardi wheel wouldn't line up with my Momo hub for instance).

              Failing that, what is the exact distance between two of the opposing holes?

              And the distance between adjacent holes?

                        well whether it's you or the next owner, i still hope it's not a steering wheel made of chinesium.

                          Just got the wheel in. From one hole to the next is 1 3/8 inches (3.5 cm) and from one hole directly across is 2 3/4 inches (7 cm).

                            you might go to his store & search for "steering wheel adapter" - he has a number of them
