Question Smaller Cobalt SS Steering Wheel?

To those that have swapped out their steering wheel, for the Cobalt SS one, what size is it? Distance Across >O< ?

I thought I read they were 2-3" Smaller than the standard Leather HHR wheel? Can't find the thread now.

Mine is 15" across.

One I bought and one currently for sale is only 14.5" across.

IS there a SMALL steering wheel, or is it just 14.5"?

Thanks

Cobalt Wheel

A&P,
I know that the leather Cobalt wheel is smaller than the HHR. Don't know just how much smaller, though.
Does your 'for sale' Cobalt wheel have the radio controls on it? Is it gray leather?
If so, I'm interested! PM me.

Mine was Supposedly from a Cobalt SS in Ebony Leather, bought on ebay, but when it arrived it was only a Half inch smaller than my oen black leather wheel, so I did not bother to swap it.

I thought they were supposed to be 2-3 Inches Smaller.

I sold it a couple weeks ago, as a Ebony HHR Leather wheel with all controls.

There is a Ebony wheel for sale right now, but after contacting the seller, his is a 14.5 as well, he also bought it from ebay as a Cobalt SS wheel.

I guess ebay sellers are now just listing anything they Fit and don't bother to make SURE they are wtf they are Advertising them as.

I just want to Confirm the actual size of the supposedly Smaller wheel from a Cobalt SS. I want the SMALLEST steering wheel I can get and stay with an OEM look and feel. Once I know for Sure that they are actually smaller, by More than a mere half inch I will look on the Cobalt forums for one.

I remember that thread, but I could not locate it or the others on this subject. Mine is 15" across and the one I bought and recently sold was 14.5", not worth the effort to swap it for only a half inch.

Thanks

A&P just it may be quicker and easier to just ask the ppl over on the 'Balt forum of the size differences.

You could shoot HHR_Style a PM, I know he has one in his, I think he also posted da pics.

To me, the stock leather padded wheel is just the perfect radius to wrap over the view of my gages as I'm reclined driving..
