Steering wheel structure
The steering wheel spokes, in OEM finish, gloss black, woven carbon or forged carbon
Quatre matières, des milliers de combinaisons.
Le choix de la matière est d'abord esthétique. Une seule exception : l'Alcantara sur les côtés accroche mieux, ce qui compte en usage circuit. Le carbone, lui, est décoratif et glisse davantage que le cuir ou l'Alcantara.
01 / 04
Alcantara®
Alcantara provides more grip than leather, especially across the hand-contact areas. This is why it is used on many performance-focused steering wheels.
On the sides, where your hands rest most often, it is the most purposeful choice. On the other areas, the decision is primarily about the look you want.
- Finishes
- Plain finish. Sides, top, bottom or the entire steering wheel
- Lead time
- Approximately 4 weeks
02 / 04
Nappa leather
Nappa leather provides the most familiar feel. Supple in the hand and consistent to the touch, it develops a patina with every journey.
The perforated version adds visual depth and a different texture while retaining the same balanced grip.
- Finishes
- Smooth or perforated. Sides, top and bottom
- Lead time
- Approximately 4 weeks
03 / 04
3K woven carbon
The signature carbon pattern in a 3K weave, available with a gloss lacquer or matte finish.
Its role is primarily visual. Harder and smoother than leather or Alcantara, it offers a less textured grip. It is naturally suited to areas where design takes priority.
- Finishes
- Gloss 3K, matte 3K
- Lead time
- 4 to 6 weeks
04 / 04
Forged carbon
Here, the fibres are randomly pressed rather than woven, creating a marbled pattern unique to each piece. Every forged carbon steering wheel has its own pattern.
It also offers the widest colour range, from natural carbon to vivid shades. Like woven carbon, its character is primarily visual.
- Finishes
- Gloss, matte, and eight colours with a gloss lacquer
- Lead time
- 4 to 6 weeks

Compatibility
THE RETROFIT PACK exactly what it is for.
The retrofit pack has one purpose: fitting a steering wheel from a different generation to your vehicle.
For the same generation, your original parts are all you need. A BMW F Series receives an F Series steering wheel, and every component transfers directly.
01
Standard configuration
Your steering wheel controls and paddle electronics are transferred from your original steering wheel to the new one.
02
With the retrofit pack
The pack includes the steering wheel controls and paddle electronics. You retain your original airbag.
03
When to choose it
Choose it when changing steering wheel generation. Within the same generation, your original controls transfer directly.
04
Another reason to choose it
It provides new buttons, sometimes with their own customisation options. It is also a convenience choice.
You retain your original airbag in every case. Check compatibility with your vehicle before confirming your order.
01Which material should I choose for my steering wheel?
It is primarily a matter of personal taste. All four materials are designed to last and include a 3-year warranty.
The main functional difference is that Alcantara provides more grip on the sides, which is noticeable during track use or more engaged driving. For the remaining areas, choose the finish you most enjoy looking at.
02Does carbon improve grip?
Carbon is harder and smoother than leather or Alcantara, so it provides less grip.
It is an aesthetic choice, and we prefer to make that clear. For more grip, choose Alcantara on the sides and use carbon on the top, bottom or structure.
03Can I combine several materials on the same steering wheel?
Yes, and this is the most common configuration. Each area is selected separately: the sides, top, bottom and structure.
A classic combination uses Alcantara on the sides for grip, with carbon or leather elsewhere for the desired appearance.
04What is the difference between woven and forged carbon?
3K woven carbon has the regular chequered pattern most people recognise. Its fibres are woven, creating a consistent pattern from one piece to another.
Forged carbon uses randomly pressed fibres rather than a weave, creating an irregular marbled effect. Every piece is unique, and the colour range is much wider.
05Does the material affect the lead time or price?
It affects the lead time. Leather and Alcantara take approximately 4 weeks. Carbon and forged carbon take 4 to 6 weeks. Lead time depends on the material rather than the vehicle make.
It also affects the price, which updates live in the configurator as you build. Base prices start at €529.
