why are some folks using the sierra wheel for the SVA then changing it after? What have I missed here, I take it there is something questionable in
the SVA manual to do with wheel size or crumplability (is that a word??)

The SVA manual requires an 'approved' wheel, and does not really say what the approval is except that it needs to be. I THink examples are given that
if its from a std car it complies. Also, it has to have some kinda padding and MUST NOT have any slots or holes of stuff for clothing, or jewelry ( Mr
T again!) to get caught in.
Its much safer to keep the std wheel and change it afterwards. If you dont, you risk an almost certain fail, or have to buy a wheel you dont want that
complies.

Not only that, but there are rules concerning dashboard switches etc. (no sticky-outy bits) but the area covered by the wheel is exempt. Sierra wheels
are large, therefore a large area of the dash can be made how you wish.
