tires and wheels A Very Momo 2002 Xmas Gift

[deschodt]

Why?

 

My standard wheel was cracking at the spokes, it was thin and wide... Enter my Xmas gift to the 2002:

Momo Mod 07 leather... Why not the standard prototipo ? Well the stock wheel has a LOT of dish, but still was not enough for me to be 100% confortable. Between the Momo hub and the dished Mod 07, I brought the wheel an inch closer to me so I can back up the seat a little and be more comfy leg wise, while retaining the proper arm length position. 

 

Other benefits: It's lighter than the stock wheel (center hub must be lead!), thicker, slightly smaller diameter but not a huge increase in leverage required (plus the extra distance, plenty of room for beefy legs and my unfortunately higher recaro seats). It's leather, feels nice... I can still reach the stalks, and the damn horn worked the first time. 

 

Wish they had an Orange band instead of yellow... Will work on that ;-) 

 

 

Nothing makes a bigger impact for the money than a steering wheel, then a nice seat ;-)

nice wheel....usually seen in track/rallye cars.......and in suede. The suede model is also used in  many factory Porsche race/cup cars..

 

I run a suede model in an e30 track car....love it.
