Could someone with an original GT steering wheel measure its outer diameter and post it here?

Okay, thanks. I ask because I found a mint, black leather-wrapped wheel in the yard for $6 that is 15.5" from an early-90's GMC Blazer, but coming from an 11" aftermarket wheel it seems like it's from a semi. I haven't had a factory wheel in a decade to compare it to, but if it's only a 3/4" larger radius it isn't that much different, and I kinda like it. I can actually see my odometer and temp gages now.

Don't have any 'before' pics, but I'll snap one and post it in a bit.

Now I just need to figure out how to get rid of the GMC logo.

Hmm. I like it. Except for the GMC logo.

Will the Fiero center fit that wheel? If not maybe put a Fiero or Pontiac logo over the top? Steering effort reduced a bit?
