Default Is the steering wheel smaller than the base car?

Is it just the flat bottom making it feel smaller, or does it really have a smaller radius?

Yes and no! From side to side the Stingray and Z06 are the same size. From top to bottom, the Z06 is a little bit smaller because of the flat bottom. Simply, the Stingray and Z06 wheels are the same with the exception that the Z06 has a flat bottom. I hope this helps.

And any C7 wheel is smaller than C6 or prior Corvettes.

Thanks, I suspected it was just the flat bottom messing with my perception. It just *feels* slightly smaller to me for some reason.
