Are you asking about quick release hubs which your steering wheel attaches to that enables the quick release function.

Steering wheels come in a bunch of different sizes, diameter, shapes, material, depth, etc. It’s personal preference.

I’m using an MPI GT13 wheel because I like the smaller diameter suede wheel and an NRG 2.8 quick release. The QR is very well made, it’s self centering, smooth on/off, ZERO slop, easy install, not outrageously priced.

Steering whee is your choice but we mostly use sparco flat bottom wheels. For the QR, SRK650BK nrg quick release and SRK177H nrg C6 hub.

With the quick release & hub, do you use a flat or dished wheel to put the rim in approx. the stock location? The one in the picture looks flat or maybe slightly dished.

I have the flat. It feels pretty much like stock once the hub/QR is installed.
