if you don't want to spend big bucks on a brand new wheel, there is a company called "mewant" that supplies you with fully custom wrap. i chose leather on top and bottom, suede on the sides, red line on top and M stitching. only costed me 55$. 6 months later still in good condition

Thanks for this info!

I specially like the flat bottom wheel. It's hard to find a nice flat bottom wheel for the f30.

Everyone might have different finances but that kind of money for a steering wheel is just stupid regardless of someone's finances. I only see a 20-something who's making tons of money spending that kind of money on a steering wheel. I remember being 20-something. Every dollar was discretionary income. I guess we all learn...

some are just lucky enough to be born into great wealth (must be nice) no need to work, they tend not to value money as much (not knocking anyone, it is what it is)

a belt can cost 1k,

womens handbags 5k

hre wheels 10k(not including tires)

...having said that i TOTALLY agree with you, $2500 for wheel is ludacris!

this "mewant" option sounds very promising for what it cost. glad i checked this thread out.. otherwise i would have never known.

Look up Coby he will do a wheel wrap for you for $200 or so. Professional alcantara cover, for those who don't want to DIY.

mewant is probably the best option for the price. everyone who sees my wheel thinks i bought it for like 1k+ lol.

@azaautowheel on IG i've heard is really well and I think it's under 1k for a wheel



my IG is westend_6 if you wanna follow my build. i fb. gonna be doing a lot more this coming spring 🤟
