you need to PPF your steering wheel.

but seriously the wheel is a wear item. you can always get it reupholstered (coby wheel). i'd rather do that than fiddle with gloves or look douchey.

This is why I would never get a steering wheel wrapped in alcantera.

No. There are no driving gloves that aren’t douchey unless you’re driving a race car on a track in a race suite… or you’re 80 with a handlebar mustache driving a vintage car from 1920.

I installed mine 4 years ago (https://f87.bimmerpost.com/forums/sh...4&postcount=45) and have a like-new leather stock wheel in storage.

If the alcantara wheel gets bad, I would rather replace it with a new one after a number of years over wearing gloves while driving. The fat M2 CS wheel is $563.88 at GetBMWParts: https://www.getbmwparts.com/oem-part...el-32308746879.

But yeah, really a preference thing.
