Has anyone thought of using a steering wheel with a multiplier?

I used a smaller wheel in my miata, it was a 322mm wheel I think, about 2" smaller diameter than stock, mostly for clearence issues (the stock wheel in that car was HUGE and no tilt/telescope so my legs would rub on it with the race seats) It was a great match to the manual steering rack. I loved it, a little more work at low speeds, but the highspeed feed back was nice.
