Royal steering wheels

They both look great. Having a hard time deciding  what to do. Think I’m edging towards keeping it simple like lamberps. Think it should have come like that from factory.

Hi,

So how does that affect the ghost security system.? Surely you have to disconnect the battery to remove your wheel of risk being killed by the airbag?

How long can the battery be disconnected for?

My car is sorn until May so its an ideal time.

Doesn’t affect the ghost! Yes the battery has to be disconnected for the airbag but the ghost works just as before once its reconnected.

Cool nice to know! Thank you

Just got back from having my steering wheel fitted at royal steering wheels. Really pleased with it. Decided on blue stripe and Alcantara at 3 and 9 o’clock positions.

Liking that one Matt. Might have to indulge myself!.

I had them do my steering wheel and the quality is superb <!–more–>

Royal steering wheels did my Nissan GTR steering wheel for me when I had it a few years back, I echo what everybody else is saying they are top quality and it’s amazing what a difference it makes. Seeing all these new RS wheels certainly tempts me to get mine done ?

Evening guys,

Think for the money this is an excellent mod. Really fancy getting this arranged for next trip I’m offshore. What’s the timescale that the wheel is away?

For the guys with the full alcantara I’ve heard it’s a nightmare to keep clean/good condition? Does it get a bit wooly/bobbly in places.

Definitely fancy the blue stripe at 12 o clock and edging towards @Matt. B wheel rather than the full alcantara.

[Matt. B]

I carry a tooth rush and a micro fibre cloth so everytime I’m in traffic i brush away and wipe down to keep it looking ok. Once a month i clean it properly. Couldn’t imagine trying to keep a full Alcantara wheel clean though

@Matt. B

I don’t daily drive the car so it wouldn’t be too much of a problem I guess although I am terribly OCD so maybe it would annoy me. Never had an alcantara wheel so nothing to compare to.

[NEILRS2K]

Seen this one on royal steering wheels website. Alcantara at tip and bottom and perforated leather at the sides. Predominantly going to be holding the leather sections so won’t wear/get dirty but this may defeat the purpose of alcantara?

[Matt. B]

Too be honest ive found i actively try and not hold my alcantara part so could be the better option having the top and bottom done.

I don’t drive mine every day so I’m not worried, but I have a pack of hand wipes in the car (the joys of having children !!) so clean hands means clean steering wheel.  I did 30k miles in my racing puma and just cleaned it on a regular basis and it was still in perfect condition when I sold it.

Launches and 0 – 60 take offs take their toll on any clutch.

If you drive it foot to the floor that then becomes hard driving over And what is relatively hard driving
