Default Steering Wheel Question

I have the original '74 steering wheel on my car. It reminds me so much of a steering wheel made of rebar LOL. Plus its huge in diameter. Is there a wheel that you folks can recommend that is leather wrapped and smaller in diameter without detracting too much from originality and does not disrupt the tilt and tele function?

Wheel purchased from Rik's Corvette Parts. Chrome spokes; also comes in satin brushed. Leather is black but you can re-dye to your interior color. Note that center hub of wheel does NOT stick out around the column body.
