Website that had $300 leather steering wheel recovering?

[nextelbuddy]

i saw some people posting in a thread back and forth about a website they got their wheels recovered through.. something about the job being farmed out to Taiwan and the package came from there but they paid to a site in California?


my friend wants to get his done and those steering wheels as nice as the one i got for $400 so I was going to recommend it to him

thanks but that doesnt seem right? the section for E46 wheels only shows really expensive wheels that dont look like the perforated m3/ZCP wheel

That's them. Technically it's a custom build, but they do it. Just tell them what you want.

Wow, those wheels are insanely expensive...

Yeah, I got it through DCT Motorsports. I emailed them directly to sales@dctms.com telling them basically that a previous customer (johnrando) was very satisfied with their work and I was hoping to have my alcantara wheel from my BMW 330Ci ZHP (I attached a picture) rewrapped in a similar fashion, attaching a second photo of John's steering wheel (ff you go to my project thread you can find a picture of mine). I specified details as well with a mixed perforated leather/perforated leather with ///M color stitching. I got an email back shortly with a description of what they could make, pricing, turn around time (they underestimate so be prepared for about a 3-4 week wait period).

Hope that helps!

but i read a thread here where 2 people were talking back and forth.. someone even posted a pic of their wheel, and I think a link to the website.. i remember clicking on the link it showed the $300ish price... i just cant find that conversation ugh lol

You might be looking for a guy named "tainik". He has an eBay store, and has a good selection of rewrapped wheels:

Here is an eBay search using his name as the seller and E46 as the string:

And here are some examples of wheels he sells:

That might have been me, here (link: http://www.zhpmafia.com/forums/showthread.php?8698-What-did-you-do-for-your-ZHP-BMW-MINI-today-2&p=432401#post432401)? When I bought the wheel and it arrived, it had an invoice from some Taiwanese leather company, but as wsmeyer pointed out, it's most likely a way to get around customs cost.

Yes! That was it thanks lol. Now I don't feel like I'm going crazy.

I bought my steering wheel from Tainik. If you go offline, the price goes down to $370 including shipping.

I got my wheel done at DCT as well, got the heads up from BMW Curves. Cost was $300 + 19 shipping, got it back almost a month to the day later. Very happy with the results, I love the way it turned out

Looks awesome! And I bet the grip is terrific for driving.

Wow, according to the website DCT wants $1100 and up for Porsche wheels. Effing "Porsche Tax".

I'd email them directly and see what they say. They had BMW wheels on their website that were listed for something like $700.
