    Steering wheel covers?

    My steering wheel is a bit beat up and is starting to flake away where i grip it. I've never used a wheel cover before but have been in plenty of car with annoying/ugly steering wheel covers. Has anyone used a quality steering wheel cover that was actually comfortable and not just another annoyance?

    Maybe the wheelskins?
    http://www.wheelskins.com/eurotone_w...p?wheel=et_lg3

    Would be cool to get the Euro version.... do black top/bottom with white sides to somewhat match the theme of my stormtrooper...

    They're leather, so i'd think the white wouldn't be hard to keep clean especially if its just the sides. I'm a 10 o'clock holder and keep my right hand on the lower section at about 5 o'clock. So i wont be gripping the white area often

    What's the difference? The one I had I wouldn't call generic it wasn't cheap if I remember correctly. I had it for my mustang, I do remember it was specific for my car.

    The difference being that i couldn't tell whether you were responding to the "wheelskins" directly as a review or some other manufacturer. And that, as i mentioned, there are a lot of crappy ones out there.

    I'm trying to find a good one... i figure good ones have to exist... they all can't be crap, right?

    Was wondering who was going to be the first to comment on that.

    Sal, you never disappoint!

    I think it looks pretty good, matches the interior really nice.

    Just a quick update.

    Still extremely happy with this cover. First off, my dad is as picky as I am and never even asked if I had a wheel cover on while offroading last weekend (he did most of the driving). To me, that's a big test to pass right there lol.

    Also, with the vehicle baking in this 100F heat the wheel cover is still night and tight.

    Conclusion = if you take your time and install this thing correctly, it's $60 well spent!
