Thanks John, so the diameter is 100 mm. It was just an idea if I could swap the steering wheel for a Momo w/o changing the boss. I had four cars with Motolita wheels and now I'm searching for something different. Anyway my favourite wheel for the 4/4 is an all black Nardi, like this one. It will need a new boss anyway.

Ah yes.....that's rather nice! I much prefer the spoke angles on that to the rather flatter top spokes on the usual Motolita.....although they did make up a very nice Leston wheel for me for my 4/4 with the spokes at 120 degrees and slotted like your Nardi. I wish I'd kept it!

I just changed the example link for another Nardi wheel in my post above. I like to see the screws. The size is a bit less than 14 inch, but the narrow tyres of the 4/4 doesn't need too much force.

If I would go for a Nardi wheel, I need a new Nardi Boss. When I order one, which dimension/size (diameter, number of teeth) is the Morgan steering colomn and how long should the Boss be to fit the steering wheel properly. Have I to take the direction indicator switch into account?
Is the Morgan steering colomn taken of a car which could be more popular when ordering?
Thanks.

yes, the lower part is not a circle shape. And this one centimeter more legroom is most welcome. And, the out of roundness shape is impossible to notice- even when you know about it

I would agree about the Morgan Park wheel; it is well made although not cheap, nice and thick, very nice to use. Had mine on the car from new, well worth it. You certainly do not notice it is not `round`.
