16:1 manual steering

9.5" rims and a 13" steering wheel with 16:1? Man, you should post a photo of your biceps. My fastback has the standard ratio manual steering, stock wheel, and 215s on 5.5" rims, and it is a brute to parallel park. But I have contemplated the 16:1 box, as the steering is way too slow once you get going. On a typical mountain road 180, you can't turn the wheel fast enough to get around — you have to slow down, not because of grip, but just to hand-over-hand the wheel.

:rofl:
Never attempted parallel parking with this setup. Probably never will!
