Default Steering Wheel Spacer

Does anybody have any sort of solution to making the steering wheel closer? i guess i have weird proportions and have arms too short for my legs i would rather not go with an aftermarket steeringwheel since i want to keep my airbag. Thanks.

I've never heard of any spacer for the factory wheel.

They make a longer hub. But you would have to have an aftermarket wheel.

No way to make the oem wheel closer to you except to move your seat up. just buy an after market wheel with a offset (nardi sport rally deep corn, vertex, etc..), regular sized hub (not short hub), and a quick release and you should be good to go.
