I've got 3 different Steering Wheels, not using the blue one as the interior will be all black, column will be replaced(for sale later) , also have a black one and another with a recently purchased column (stock pic like it) But i was considering going with the wood wheel at 14". knocks an inch off plus I like the styling, might professionally painting the spokes changing the center emblem to a dodge logo
Thoughts?

Just my opinion, but you will never find a cheap Grant Wheel on one of my cars. You can't beat the Chrysler design for woodgrain wheels.
 
Yes, if you have power steering, the smaller wood wheel will be fine. If manual, it will steer a bit harder.
 
I bought one of those real wood steering wheels for my old Charger and it looked like a great upgrade as the car had one of those small padded black tuff type wheels on it when I got it
After driving the car a lot you could see where I always had my hand on the steering wheel as it changed colour just from holding it in the same spot all the time
Was not grubby but looked like it was
I rounded up a factory wood grain wheel to put in the 70 Charger I am working on now
 
3.25 and 3.5

Superior made wheels with different depths, real wood, fake wood, etc.

My black one has the old school wrap on it.

I love a good factory wheel too.

I kinda like your black one, I had a green interior car with a similar wheel.
 
I like the factory 3 spoke wheel on the 66 & 67 cars, but they are fake wood I believe?
The one below is my favorite.

I like the feel of my real wood Grant (or similar, not sure) wheel. I actually sanded it down, stained it black and put about 5 coats of varnish on it. I really like it now but I still prefer the look of the factory wheel.

This one is fake wood, pulled it from a 70s junk boat, lol. I still have my original one in decent shape.
