Anyone use an alcantara steering wheel?
I am going to pick up one of the DCTMS T96 Sport steering wheels for my car. They offer it in leather or alcantara. I have never tried an alcantara wheel and am wondering what the advantage is? Any advice would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Troy

I was always one of the guys yelling "Why the hell would anyone get a Tip" Lol! Now I am glad Porsche offered it.

Yeah, I had to get a Tip this time! I broke my neck awhile back and my left leg is a little slow now! I found when driving a manual I would ride the clutch and just can't shift as fast as I used to!

I imagine there are different quality grades but a well done interior in Alcantara is beautiful. Lancia used to offer it (or still does?) in some of their cars; absolutely gorgeous!

I've had a Momo alcantara steering wheel before, I don't think there's any "performance" benefit over leather, it's just a different look. I would only get alcantara if the rest of the interior was alcantara to match, seats, dash, etc.

Agreed, just the steering wheel only will look weird.

Thanks for the input guys!
I think I am going to go with black leather to match the interior. Let me ask you guys this....My car is arctic silver and I thought about going with silver stitching. I am kind of on the fence though because there aren't many silver trim pieces in my car. Do you guys think this would look funny?
