      a smaller steering wheel will just make you have to turn the wheel more in courses. i think what you want is a quick ratio steering rack.

      but if you do get a new wheel dont get a 330. stock is 380 so you would be suprised at how small a 350 will feel/look.

        how exactly will it make it turn more?

        the only thing would be there would be less leverage, but the degrees you would turn would be the same.

        it's hard to get a bus wheel turning quick enough, whereas a smaller wheel is more manageable

          the steering wheel does add to your lock to lock ratio. its like gears on a bike. what used to be one full rotation of the wheel would be like a full rotation and a 1/3 w/ a 330 350 probably wouldnt make much difference. try different sizes my friend went from a 360 to a 330 and it feels retarded haha. im tryin to say a 350 is more realistic and you would probably like it

              Yeah, I saw that. Thought it was local but the poster only is, not the wheel. Lame. Still tempting...


              Trying to decide suede MOD 78 vs. Champion. I've always like champions best.

                  ask a manufactuer. i just think a e30 is a lil large for 330. have you looked at nardis? or omp
