    out of experiance deffo get a mega dish suede 350mm steering wheel, i had a 330mm wooden one in mine first off and it was a little slippery and made the steering feel a little heavy, soon as i changed to the suede one it was awesome, some people do prefer 330mm but definately dont go smaller than that.

    Get a E36 Rack conversion too, by far and away one of the best things you can do to an E30

    Yep 350mm suede OMP or similar 3 spoke works lovely. Don't go any smaller.
