Steering Wheel Setup
I've searched around for information and reviews on various steering wheel setups, but I guess I'm looking for more specific answers. So, I thought I'd ask you locals first so that I'm flamed by a smaller region of people. :)
I currently have an early airbag-less Mtech wheel ~382mm (OD) and I have to keep my legs in awkward positions to use the pedals (I'm ~6'2").
I'm wondering what other people are running and how they feel about the leg room and the position of the turn signal stalk (this is a daily driver).
Couple of steering wheels I'm looking at are ~350mm with 20mm (this ends up being about the same depth as the Mtech wheel, but I think it looks the best), 70mm, or 100mm dish. I'm also considering various spacer options too.

If you have sport seats try lowering the seating position, moves you back another 2-3in and down 3in.
If the wheel you have is 382mm outer diameter it may be a 375mm Mtech 1 which is worth some cash, IIRC it needs to end in 074 on the back to be 375mm. 076 is 385mm.1989 BMW 325is | 2019 Ford Ranger FX4willschnitz
