Received my new wheel from Cvrbonized.
Flat bottom, carbon fiber and Alcantara. Quality seems great, price was $612 on sale and took about 45 days from order to delivery. Will update photos and impressions once I get around to installing it in a couple weeks.

Any install updates? Where did you order this from? I just looked at OHC but can't find any reviews. I'd like a good quality steering wheel.

I have not installed it yet. If you look closely the M-color stitching is in the wrong order. I've contacted the vendor multiple times now and they keep saying they're working it out with their manufacturer - whatever that means. I've chatted with a couple people who have a similar wheel from them with the correct stitching, so I'm hoping they make it right.

By chance, do you know if this particular steering wheel, will allow you to keep the adaptive cruise control? I would be installing this on a 2024 G87. I don’t have heated steering wheel so that doesn’t concern me.

Thanks

Yes, it has the option to add that feature. My vehicle has active cruise. Vendor is making me a new wheel. We'll see how long that takes & how it turns out when I receive it.

I contacted them again today and just received an email that it should he done "sometime next week". This is after the last update on 4/16 that it was almost finished & they'd send pics.

Finally received my replacement wheel from Cvrbonize on Sunday & installed today. Wheel is excellent quality; however, the company's communication sucks.

12/29/23 - order placed. Cost $612 shipped.

2/13/24 - order received, M stitching messed up. Contacted vendor with pics.

3/16/24 - after repeatedly contacting the vendor & threatening to contact my credit card company, they agree to make a new wheel.

4/16/24 - contact vendor about status. Reply "almost done will send pics".

5/15/24 - contact vendor after no pics sent. Reply "will be done this week".

6/1/24 - contact vendor again for status update. Reply on 6/6/24 with just a pic of UPS tracking #

6/14/24 - contact vendor again bc UPS tracking shows item not picked up. Reply on 6/17/24 " Hey bro so sorry. I had a family emergency I will ship out tommorow. My apologies."

6/23/24 - replacement wheel received.

Looks great!

Sorry for the hassle! Looks great and is significantly cheaper than most replacements I have seen that look similar.

Thanks! Has a great feel to it & matches the rest of the interior. I'm a much bigger fan of Alcantara steering wheels vs leather. Leather gets "slimy" after not too long. The steering wheel in my wife's '22 X3MC is already slimy at only 28k mi. It has the same feel as the steering wheel in my son's 2003 Wrangler. Alcantara is easy to maintain & clean to keep its original feel. Also doesn't get hot in the Summer or cold in the Winter.

I wanted to purchase from them, but I’m sorry, I couldn’t live with the car one weave not matching the rest of the steering wheel.
Completely different weave and wrong direction.
Overall, yes it looks pretty good, but not for me😀

Yeah, I have the factory carbon fiber interior option and the mismatched patterns are a deal breaker for me as well.

YMMV

Don't really notice it in the car. Doubt you're going to find any cf wheels that match the pattern of the OEM steering wheel trim.
