    I don't want to do the wet blanket thing, but that looks to be a lot bigger than what I need. Not to rule it out though. What is the spacing on the center legs?

    It's completely resizable... you can make the space between the legs small or large. You will need to reach out to them for exact specs (ie how small or large it can get).

    Just want to show my latest built. DTM BMW M3 steering wheel for RRRE DTM cars.
    It's made of a 4mm carbon plate, self 3d-printed magnetic shifter and a QR to fit on my Moza R9 base. The handles are 3d printed as well and covered completly in overgrip tape. The buttons are those cheap chinese ones (DS-612) with printed knobs. Not 100% happy with the knobs, they all have a small dent on top, think i'll do them again. All is connected to an Arduino Pro Micro coded with the help of Simhub (many thanks for this great piece of software)! Coments welcome!

    Rims looks.good but the grip tape looks awful. Surely there's a better way? Rubberised paint or something?

    Yes, there is something called "plastidip", but that does'nt last long, and to cover the handles in suede (which i normally do) was impossible for me without wrinkles because of the complicated shape of the handles.
    I am ok with that. My old DTM wheel had those tape allready, so i am used to this look. Besides that, while driving the handles are covered by your hands ;).

    Finally got the wheel off my desk. After 15 years or so it was about time.
    Set it up in the corner of my basement office. Started fresh with a dedicated computer
    as well so wires would be easier to manage etc.
