[DeTomaso] Steering wheels

[Boyd Casey]

My Lecarra wheel is nay 13" in diameter. With my Nitto NT-05 235/40R18
 Front tires that are 9.57" wide I felt like I needed steroids to turn the
wheel from lock to lock while parking! Some one should invent a wheel with
an extension from one of the spokes with one of those 1950's suicide speed
steering balls (a brodie knob).
Tuning those 9.57" wide 18" wheels with no power steering will give you
quite a work out. The extra inch of leverage would have come in handy even
if it made you ooh like Ralph Kramden!
