    Help with identifying my different Springalex steeringwheels?

    Hello

    I've got a few old Springalex wheels sitting in the garage that i bought a few years ago.
    I have -75 mk1 rs2000 rallycar under restoration and im also trying to decide wich one of these are most suited for my car in terms of what would possibly have been fitted in the 70's on a rallycar.

    I got told by the bloke i bought them off a few years ago that the bare (silver) aluminium spoke one's are old works wheels, dunno if that's true but the price was too good to disregard anyways...

    He also told me that the larger diameter wheel with a narrower grip was a cortinawheel, and that the smaller one was a early escort mk1 wheel.

    They both have vinylgrip instead of the black spoke one's that both have leathergrip.

    Anyone who can help me identify where these wheels belonged once upon a time?

    Cheers,
    Dave
