FAQs

What is the main advantage of the 290mm diameter?

The 290mm diameter provides a balance between quick steering response and stability, making it ideal for the precise inputs required in single-seater racing.

Can this steering wheel be used on a road car?

No, this steering wheel is designed exclusively for racing applications and is not street-legal or compatible with standard road car mounting systems without extensive modification.

How do I clean the suede grip?

Gently brush the suede with a soft suede brush or use a slightly damp cloth. Avoid excessive moisture and harsh cleaning agents.

What does 'undrilled' mean?

It means the steering wheel does not have pre-drilled mounting holes. You will need to drill these holes yourself or have them professionally drilled to match your specific steering column.

What is the grip size?

The oval grip measures approximately 34mm in height and 25mm in depth.

Are other sizes or materials available?

Yes, the Model 26 is also available in 260mm and 280mm diameters with suede grips, and in black leather in a 260mm diameter.

Troubleshooting

Steering wheel feels loose after installation

Re-check all mounting bolts and ensure they are tightened to the manufacturer's specifications for the boss kit and steering column. Verify the integrity of the drilled holes.

Suede grip feels slippery

Ensure hands are clean and dry. If the suede is new, it may take a short period to break in. If the suede is worn or dirty, clean it gently with a suede brush.

Difficulty drilling holes accurately

Measure and mark positions carefully. Use a drill press for precision and appropriate drill bits for the material. Professional installation is recommended if unsure.

Cons

  • Requires professional drilling for installation.
  • Suede grip can wear over time with extensive use and may require specific cleaning.

  • Flat dish might be less comfortable for some users during prolonged driving compared to a dished wheel.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: This steering wheel is supplied undrilled. Professional installation is required to drill the mounting holes to precisely match your vehicle's steering column. Ensure proper alignment and secure mounting using appropriate hardware. This wheel is designed for racing applications and may require a specific boss kit.

Compatibility: Primarily designed for Formula and Single Seater racing cars. It is not compatible with standard road vehicle steering columns without significant modification and the use of a suitable adapter or boss kit. Verify compatibility with your specific racing chassis.

Care: To maintain the suede grip, avoid excessive moisture and dirt. Use a soft brush or a slightly damp cloth for cleaning. Do not use harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners, as they can damage the suede. For persistent dirt, a specialized suede cleaner can be used sparingly. Protect from direct sunlight for extended periods to prevent fading.
