Anyone do a steering wheel swap and tried any paddle mods can commend on their necessity? I don't really like the Derekspeare design...are there any other options out there? And, if anyone has tried the Derekspeare 320mm paddles with a 320mm wheel do you find the paddles get in the way when drifting?

Also, does anyone have experience with an adapter other than derekspeare? I found this on ebay. These guys are hopeless when I ask them what the PCB is for this wheel. I assume my RS wheel in the picture is 70mm, because it has the even number mounting position instead of odd number which are 74mm PCD. The DSD adapter and chilicoke are only 70mm...but I found one on ebay that is "70mm AND 74mm". I'm looking at it and am wondering why are the holes closer to the center not round? It is for the 70mm and 74mm size of course...but wouldn't it only need the outside extra holes? The inside holes should be one size....can somebody explain this to me?

Should I get this ebay one? Also I think weight of the adapter would be quite important...lower weight better. What adapter would be best?

Chilicoke adapter fron ebay (is it chilicoke...or a chilicoke copycat?) for comparison (only 70mm, not for 74mm also). Notice round inner holes? Why would above adapter have oval inner holes? Those holes just are for mounting the adapter into the G27 I am correct?

The not round holes are because that one will work on the G25 and G27, which are slightly different, but not different enough that drilling 2 separate holes would work.

Ah yes! How did I not think of that :p:p:p
