Moto Lita is the real one and you cant be half pregnant on this to my believe.
Dark blue leather and flat !
The only question is the dimension as original is a bit too large for road usage to me.
I went 1 inch less.
Good luck !

I took the 13 inch.
It is a bit more easy and I found that 14' looks very big (although original)
I bought it directly from Motolita

Correction:
Sorry, I have the 14 ' not the 15' (15' is original)
Sorry for confusion.

I do not think the boss PCD is the same as Moto Lita. Although they supplied the original wheel I do not think the current version is what was supplied back in the 60's.The 60's wheel certainly never had Moto Lita laser etched into the spoke. All of the original cars I have seen have a Black wheel.
Our version is available in 13" and 15" and costs £175. The boss and badge costs £75.
Wheels smaller than the original 15" obstruct the instruments but do give a little more driver space.
Personally I like the 15" as it gives a more original feel when driving the car.
You can order by emailing me directly at [email protected]

Moto Lita confirmed to me some years back, they never supplied the wheel for the 40. This was after some time searching their database and consulting retired family members.
The one on their website is a fairly new addition to their range.

It's not that new, I bought my Moto Lita wheel over 20 years ago. Bryan Wingfield had Moto Lita produce them.
Regards,
So who was the original manufacturer of the steering wheels ?
J A Pearce were the original manufacturer but it's likely that wheels came from other sources as I'm fairly sure that I've seen a Formula wheel on a Mk.III

Graham,
I can only report back what were the results of their search.
No mention was made of Brian.

Hi Andrew,
I'm not criticising. As you know, a lot depends on who you speak to on the day.
Regards,
