I almost went with a two tone Isotta that was black/tan w/polished spokes and then settled for the more subtle Competition. I like your choice in the Nero though. What helped me was to feel all the different steering wheels too and fortunately I went to Tokyo Auto Salon so I could do that last Jan. If I get a chance later I can measure stock wheel, my Momo Competition is 13.5" to give you a comparison. It really makes the stock feel like for a bus driver and looks butt ugly in comparison. I also like the fact with these you can quick release it and it sure makes getting in and out easy, plus no putting weight on the column.

Re: Need a new steering wheel
Do we measure outer diameter?

The stock wheel is 15" from outer diameter compared to 13.5" with the Nero and Competition. They have smaller, but I like this size and seems perfect. Best wishes.

Re: Need a new steering wheel
I believe most Momo wheels are actually 350mm (13.8) diameter and if you liked the feel/control of the Momo and you were considering others that mention SAE dimensions you might want to shop 13 3/4. Is there a difference in actual feel? Some people do well with smaller diameter wheels and some after they spend time with them it becomes a nuisance. I know a couple that have made changes to steering wheels smaller in diameter but later changed back just for the feel.
