15" steering wheel for EXU

Despite hours of searching, I've yet to come up the right (smaller) steering wheel for an EXU. Preferably, it would be "gold" rimmed, 3 spoke, and able to be fitted to my existing hub.
I'd appreciate any suggestions.

Hi Bob, I am not aware of any gold pearl 15 wheels. You would have to have one custom made and still not sure it would look right with the combination chrome plastic spokes being shorter. I would suggest the 15 Brooklands Black wheel and hub. I have these in stock, item ST038b in my catalog. This is a popular alternative for those needing more room in the cockpit.

Thanks Doug for the suggestion. Naturally, I checked the
FTFU catalog first, before looking elsewhere and I did see the smaller Brooklands wheel.
It has always struck me as slightly incongruous to put earlier style parts on a later car. My car was produced for the US market in 1949; Brooklands closed for good in 1939.
I know that I'm in the minority on this opinion and many TC owners love the look of their 4 spoke banjo wheels, Brooklands wind screens and Blockley tires.
