Hi, can anyone identify this 350mm steering wheel? I was contemplating it for my RHD 1974 e9 but I'm swaying towards the 380mm petri or the prototipo It looks similar to the e12 m535i and also the M1's factory steering wheel but the horn buttons are different.
Does anyone know which BMW this is off if any?

I think a 350mm is to small for a cs.I have a 380mm and wish I could get a 400mm in the style I'm using.
 
Looks to be a smaller version of the 380mm M1 steering wheel. Not able to trace this wheel to any specific model, but most likely, it was fitted to a late 70's-early 80's 3 series.
 
I agree...looks like an M1...and yes, 350 is too small. 400 mm is too big. I have a number of 380 wheels in the stash, but I landed on a 390 mm Nardi and used a short vintage hub, perfect for show and go. As a note, I had a 320I cancellation tab that works perfect into the boss of the Nardi hub (vintage) The newer hubs do not allow this. Pretty sure I posted years ago on this (hubs) It seems my hub is very rare, so glad to have it. A late night e-bay deal I scored a while before I settled on the Nardi wheel. End of the day, the shorter the hub, closer to the dash, larger wheel can be used and have the comfortable driving position...and look appropriate.
