I only run steering wheels that are MOMO, Personal, Nardi, Sparco, or anything made in Japan (i.e. ATC).
I understand it's tempting to grab one of those $30 specials when an entry-level steering wheel from any of the above is at least $100 - $200!
I've been in that scraping-by-with-lunch-money phase, but my first purchase was a MOMO Race 350mm that I paid $220 for...

Also, I agree with the fingers hitting everything on the instrument cluster problem...
Since "Deep Corn" type steering wheels command a premium, you can always go with a steering wheel spacer.
In addition to the MOMO hub adapter, I run a 2" spacer on top of the Tekniq Snap-Off quick release system.
With my body dimensions, this works really well for me in a comfortable seating position with the steering wheel that far back - stock was too far forward.

Yeah the one I got wasnt quite Momo quality, but it was loads better t hen my original one. Once I got it all bolted on and everything I gave it a good amount of push/pull force with no noticeable amount of flex to it.

The Three inch offset had deff been a huge plus as well once I got used to it. The only real big is I have to reach a bit more when activating my high beams, though this just leads to me flashing people less to let them know they can pass me.
