Hey guys I really want to buy the BMW suede wrapped wheel but on my last car I had a suede momo steering wheel and the suede turned smoths as leather within 3 months!!!! Just wondering if this was just a bad wheel. I don't want to drop huge cake on a wheel that looks like crap within half a yr. Can someone who has one comment on the longevity of the suede

Do you mean Alcantara?

Exactly, suede is leather, Alcantara is synthetic man made material.

As for longevity, it comes down to how you maintain it.

Not sure it was fro. Momo so I am sure it was suede.

I always wanted that steering wheel too but could never justify the cost. Some day I'll get it.
