The delivery time for a custom-made steering wheel depends first of all on the material chosen. Each project is manufactured on a new OEM basis and then customized to your configuration. The manufacturing time therefore corresponds to the level of finish chosen, not simply to the model of your car.
What time should be expected depending on the material?
A leather or Alcantara steering wheel takes around four weeks. With carbon or forged carbon, the lead time is generally between four and six weeks. This difference comes from the production of the carbon elements and their integration into the final configuration.
The choice of material has as much impact on the touch as on the calendar. Our guide to choosing the material for your steering wheel helps you make this first choice before launching your project.
Your car remains available during production
Manufacturing starts from a new OEM base. Your current steering wheel therefore remains in your car throughout the preparation of the new project. You continue to use your vehicle as normal, then arrange assembly when your personalized steering wheel is ready.
This approach allows you to prepare your configuration with precision, without rushing the choices of shape, material or finish. It also explains why the announced deadline corresponds to complete manufacturing and not to simple retouching.
What happens after finalization
Once manufacturing is complete, the steering wheel is checked and then shipped within one working day. Shipping is insured at the actual value of the order. The key moment therefore remains the finalization of your configuration: the clearer your choices are at the start, the more the project can follow its planned pace.
If you are still hesitating between several options, first compare the elements that change the price of a personalized steering wheel. The deadline mainly follows the subject chosen.
Prepare your configuration at the right time
The configurator allows you to choose the material, the grip areas and the details that will give your steering wheel its character. A configuration for Audi like any other project in the catalog starts from the same logic: the right base, the right equipment, then the finishes that suit you.
You can start your configuration as soon as your project is defined. Our guide changing your car steering wheel also answers the most frequently asked questions before getting started.
