Although it looks really nice and feels awesome, suede steering wheels don't do well for street driven vehicles as the sweat on your hands degrade the suede finish VERY quickly. I did the mistake of buying a Sparco suede steering wheel for the e36, after 2 months the 10 and 2 position had worn smooth, looks like crap now...:cry:

Ummm, I somehow suspected that would happen. Sorry though

it is done using oem Alcantara(tm), as used on the performance wheels and csl. Wear on alcantara is far superior than suede
there is maintenance in everything, but wear rates are exaggerated. besides, I dont daily drive :)
