Tell us which car you have (registration) please, and maybe a picture.

Someone will be able to advise - Mountney seems the most common type in use

As can be seen in Ben’s link many of the wheels come in two parts the wheel and hub. It is the hub that must suit your vehicle. It might be possible to pick up a second hand wheel and fit a new hub. I would tend to get a reputable company to specify the hub you need as if it doesn’t fit they ought to sort it out.

This company, Europa Spares has other makes of wheel. They will be at Stoneleigh offering a 10% show discount, and may have some they could show you. I have asked them to bring parts to the show but it might be a bit late for that. Their stand is always busy.

The type of wheel is very much a personal taste. Marlins tend to be enhanced by one of the classic designs but I have also seen modern racing style wheels that look superb.

PS: I should also say that the wheel should not be too big and jam your knuckles against the door. If you decide on a different diameter check that you can still see your dials and warning lights. Most aftermarket wheels will not pass an IVA test if that is a consideration.

Whilst I have my old photos out, here are a few different steering wheels fitted to a Roadster/Cabrio:-

Even the standard Mountney wheels can be in Flat, or Dished style
- note how the smaller wheels give much more hand/finger room to the door.
