    The Ultimate Steering Wheel ID Thread

    If you have dates post them, as steering wheels tend to change shape across time, while retaining the same name. Momo dates are usually printed on the back of the wheel as "4-91" meaning it was manufactured in the fourth month of 1991. Wheel width is always good too, usually measured in millimeters (ex. 330mm), cm (ex. 33cm) or inches (ex. 13").

    This thread is for collectible "QUALITY" wheels like; MOMO, Nardi, Sparco, Mazdaspeed, etc.,

    This thread is not for "disposable" wheels like; grant, grip royal, and jdm "style" wheels

    ATC Sprint - 350mm


    ATC Sprint 'Collection' - 350MM. Usually found in blue

    or red

    ATC Sprint D-Cut - 340mm (there was also a 350mm model)


    ATC Sprint-R - 330mm


    ATC Sprint Cone 65 - 350mm (the script reads Sprint Deep Model, but it is officially called the Cone. 65 is the offset from the hub in MM, they also made 45mm offset and 325mm models)



    Momo Benetton - 360mm. Called the 1980's version? the two I saw were dated 05-90 and 12-90.


    Momo Benetton - 350mm. Called the 1990's version? The one I saw was dated 05-94.

    I'm kicking this off, per Phat's suggestion. I've always thought it would be a great idea too, but with all the wheels, variations, knockoffs and my lack of steering wheels knowledge it seemed a bit daunting. Moving past that, I think it needs to be done. I'll be back to update, just wanted to start this before I forget. Please contribute whatever you want or toss in suggestions!

    Indeed it is. I think you've got a lot of info on Prototipos to fill us in on.

    Did you know there's a Benetton that doesn't have the wacky colors? I've run across it on ebay and yj a few times. Same exact design with horn pad, but in more muted non-Harlequin colors.



    Not my image, it's hotlinked from a google search. I've seen it in black and dark blue.

    A couple of mine, first a late 70's Jacky Ickx wheel, part of the momo signature series of F1 drivers back in the day.



    second, also part of the same series, a Clay Regazzoni wheel, also late seventies.



    I'll add more to this thread when I have a chance.

    Can I play?

    OEM Nardi S-Limited/Special, 360-365mm? From the mid 90's.



    …and here's what it currently looks like, customized with the face removed, some shiny bolts, and the Nardi Classic horn and trim ring from the wheel pictured below.



    Nardi Classic, 360mm. Don't know when it was made. Didn't seem at all old when I had it.

    I hope this is a good place to post this Ebay link. I found a Luisi wheel on Ebay that resembles a Prototipo, and the price is basically a steal at the moment. I would buy it if I was 320mm or smaller.
