غطاء مقود كربوني بنمط منسوج، قطعتان لكل طقم، 38 سم

Two pieces, not a full ring

Most steering wheel covers are one closed ring that has to be stretched over the wheel. This one is two curved pieces, each covering roughly a third of the rim, that press onto the wheel from either side. That is what "clip-on" means here, and it changes what the product can and cannot do.

Because the pieces press on rather than stretch on, they do not need hot water, soap or a second pair of hands. They also do not need to be laced shut at the bottom, which is where most covers tear first.

The top of the rim stays bare

Look at the photos before you order. There is a gap at the top of the wheel, between where the left piece ends and the right piece begins. That gap is deliberate: it keeps the rim clear where most drivers rest a thumb, and it is why this cover does not build up under the hand at twelve o'clock.

If you want the entire rim covered with no gap at all, this is the wrong product. Say so before ordering and we will quote a full-ring cover instead.

Measure the wheel, not the car

The cover is built for steering wheels measuring 37–38 cm across the outside of the rim. That covers the majority of passenger cars, but not all of them, and not the thicker rims on some pickups and SUVs.

Measure across the wheel at its widest point, outside edge to outside edge, with the wheel straight. If you get 36 cm or less, or 39 cm or more, tell us the number. A cover that is one size out will either wrinkle at the ends or work loose in a week, and neither is a manufacturing fault.

What the face is made of

The face is a woven carbon fibre layer bonded to a moulded core. It is a trim part, not a one-piece moulded carbon shell, so we make no claim about added stiffness or weight saving, and we do not sell it as a performance part. What it does is hide scuffs and hand oils far better than a plain smooth cover, and it keeps the grip consistent whether the cabin is hot or cold.

We say this plainly because buyers in this category are often told otherwise. If you need a structural carbon shell, this is not it, and we would rather lose the order than ship a misdescription.

What actually holds it on

The inner face carries a textured grip lining, the mesh visible in the fifth photo. It bites against the rim material instead of relying on tension alone. On a leather or synthetic-wrapped rim the pieces sit still through normal driving; on a very smooth, hard plastic rim they can creep, and a wipe of the rim with a dry cloth before fitting helps.

There is no adhesive on this product. Nothing is glued to the wheel, and nothing is left behind when the cover comes off.

Eight colours

Blue, red, green, purple, white, brown, grey and black, all in the same weave. The two-piece set is packed as a matched pair, so both halves always come from the same dye lot.

Grey and black read almost the same in cabin photos. Use the eight-up colour chart in the gallery to choose between them, and put the colour name on the order rather than a photo number.

The blue, red and green are the strongest sellers in the Gulf and Eastern Europe. White shows dirt fastest and is the one colour we would not recommend for a taxi or a fleet car.

Fitting, in order

Wipe the rim dry. Press the left piece on from the nine o'clock side, working it over the rim by hand from the bottom of the piece upwards. Repeat on the right. Check that both ends sit level with each other before the cover settles into position; once the lining has taken the shape of the rim, moving a piece means peeling it off completely and starting again.

Removal is the reverse and takes about ten seconds per piece. No tools.

Care

Wipe with a damp cloth and a mild soap solution, then dry with a cloth rather than leaving it wet on the wheel. Do not use solvent-based cleaners, acetone or abrasive pads: the weave pattern is a surface layer and will polish through. Do not machine wash and do not leave the cover soaking.

What this product is not

It is not a full-ring cover, it is not a re-trim, and it is not a one-piece moulded carbon shell. It does not cover the horn pad or the spokes, and it should never be fitted over a damaged or loose rim. It is a dress-up part for a standard 37–38 cm wheel.

Carton and container

Eighty sets to a carton of 66 × 56 × 40 cm, which works out at 0.0018 m³ per set. A 20GP takes roughly 190 cartons, or about 15,000 sets, when loaded to the roof. Mixed colours are fine within the carton as long as each colour runs in multiples of ten sets.
