14" Steering Wheel Too Small

Looking To Get a New Steering Wheel. Is 14" Too Small?

Want It To Look Proportional in The Truck And Feel Right

Not for me.
I'm currently running a 13" with no dish and like it. I do have power steering. If I ever get a tilt column I might go back but for now it's just right.

I have a 15" with 2" dish. Its pretty flat, but enough dish so my hand doesn't hit the turn signal. I think it looks proportionate to the rest of the truck. Guess it depends on the feel your looking for.

Re: 14" Steering Wheel Too Small

I think 14" is too small, will look disproportionate. But what you are asking is a matter of personal preference.
