PETA was started to save Alcantaras and then spread to all animals.

Default Alcantara would be great! I am waiting for someone to offer the Euro wheel in Alcantara.

Even if it wears faster- it is such a nice wheel..

Default Wears fastest if you don't clean it... may not wear much at all if you do.

From www.alcantara.com...North America...English...


Maintenance...

http://www.alcantara.com/contenuti/pdf/manutenzione_alcantara.pdf



Maintenance Instructions...

Alcantara® combines softness, elegance, and rich colour with high resistance to wear and tear and incredible ease of maintenance. It is perfectly suited to innovative, prestigious applications in car upholstery.



General Washing Instructions...

To preserve the beauty of Alcantara®, we recommend that you clean the fabric regularly, avoiding energetic scrubbing and the use of steaming equipment.

For car upholstery you can use specific products, or - if they are not on hand - dust it with a soft cloth or sponge dampened with clean water. Wring it out well and clean all Alcantara® fabric, taking care not to wet the upholstery too deeply; dampen the cloth in clean water, wipe again, and allow to dry well overnight. The rejuvenate the fabric by brushing it delicately with a soft-bristled brush.

The Lotus and Lambo alcantara wheels always look great, so long as you keep 'em clean.

Hi there,

I just sent you an E-mail. I have a few alcantara steering wheels available with and without the airbag.

Hi abwc,

It's a B7 wheel. Here's a pic of one installed in one of my customers cars. It looks really raced out. A very cool steering wheel. I've got the B5 alcantara wheel aswell if anyone would need that.
