Default Aftermarket Steering Wheel Sizes below 300mm

Hi guys, not sure if this belongs to the interior forum instead... please move this thread if necessary!

I'm playing with the idea of changing my stock steering wheel to a smaller wheel. I've been eyballing the OMP formula quadro (250mm), Momo mod.27 (270mm or 290mm).

Safety issues aside, my question is: what are the advantages and disadvantages of going to these small steering wheels? also, would steering amount and precision become much too difficult to control? Lastly, would after market steering wheels improve steering feedback at all?

Reason why I want to do this is because I've always prefer smaller steering wheels and prefer more vibration/information than what the stock S2K wheel can provide.

thanks for your help!

I have a 330 and it is already very small, you will notice heavier steering in lower speeds
