Well, you have to define your terms. :) In either case you will turn the steering wheel the same number of radians to get the same change in spindle angle. A larger steering wheel means you move the rim more linear distance to get that number of radians. More arm motion with less effort for the same spindle angle. Conversely, a smaller steering wheel will require more effort, but require less arm motion. Confused yet?

Maybe I'm missing something here...wouldn't a larger wheel give you more
turn for less input?
