I'm running a Momo 320mm wheel with the NRG Gen 2.5 SRK-250BK quick release and their SRK-170H Short Hub.

The column housing to wheel mounting surface is 4-1/8" with the quick release and short hub. Beware: Their standard hub puts the wheel in your face!

I've had the 320mm wheel over 20 years and really like it, but I wouldn't go any smaller. FWIW I'm also running 12.7:1 ratio steering box.

Another thing to note is the NRG setup eliminates the typical 'crush hub' wheel adapter so you're compromising safety and should run a shoulder belt at a minimum.

My car came with a 330mm Sparco and it was just weird small. I didn't realize how weird it felt til I tried a 350mm. Big difference. Swapped out to the 350mm and it's pretty much perfect. For me.

Have any pics? How is the position compared to stock?

I'm definitely doing that same short hub. Not even sure they sell a diff one anymore. Want the gen 2.8 but was considering the slim for space.

Yea fair enough. I think you and the guys at gap have convinced me to go 350 instead of 320.
