      Pedals really comes down to what is comfortable for you. Never want to be over extending yourself. Rule of thumb I've always followed for steering wheel is, sitting properly of course not leaning forward...arm extended straight to the top of the wheel, steering wheel should be right at your wrist. And height is comfort preference as well, want good visibility.

      ^^^^^that plus left knee slightly bent with the clutch pedal on the floor.

      I usually start with pedals and seat and get comfortable in the car. You can always move the column in or out with an aftermarket column or if you want the wheels closer a quick disconnect can add some length.
