I need a new steering wheel (the current one is too big and is horrible!), something around the 300mm mark and relatively cheap.

Anyhoo, where abouts in the NE can you buy them by looking at them first? I've tried REvolution Motorsport (only sell 320mm or higher), Motorsport (can order any I want in, but don't have stock), Halfords don't sell em...

I know Demon Tweeks have stock, but I want to get my hands on them before parting with my cash!

I need new shoes as well!

Bloody hell, you must have been driving a lot to need a new steering wheel AND to have worn out your shoes

I've got a steering wheel that came with my Super6 kit that I don't want/need any more, having replaced it with a nice grippy suede one.

It's one of these (so far as I can tell from the picture) -
www.dcp-shop.co.uk/buy-car-accessories/product_info.php?products_id=4848&osCsid=12f5c530dfb3fc461637581822f68fa1

I'm using the boss for the new wheel so you'd need to get an appropriate 6-hole one for your car, but if you want it then make me an offer - currently it's hanging on the garage wall doing nothing....

tried them, they could order anything I wanted in, but didn't carry the stock.

JimSupersix sorted me out in the end, just waiting to take some pictures - I got a centre badge t'other day

if you want a nice mountney wheel they do leather bound or wooden ones for about £25 in a variety of different sizes, green & white minis do them in houghton le spring but you'd be better off looking at the minispares site and ordering online
