Those cheap suede snap-on grips from Amazon work really well and last a long time. They snap pretty tight on the wheel though, so they can put a little stress on what's left of the wheel cover when you are taking them off. Probably better to cover the wheel, but the suede snap-ons will work great if you don't plan to recover.

the only way to keep alcantara furry is daily brushing

Wow, a lot of feed back here thanks guys! My first time checking in on the thread since the slow reception initially. 5 months later I can say I'm just as happy with it as I was upon first assembly. Performance of all components have exceeded my expectations without any feeling of wear. The latest Forza Motorsport was released, I hoped in on my sim after only participating in practices and started competing in races... straight to the top of the qualifying leader boards! I understand Forza is not as competitive as the others, but it felt good and a sense of confirmation I've been coming to grips with the dynamics a sim offers vs controller.

Or, you can buy a new Porsche wheel from Fanatec for not much money. https://fanatec.com/us-en/accessorie...-gt3-cup-suede
I put this on a SimLine button and paddle mounting base to use on my SimUCube Pro.
I go through these things. I love my BMW GT2 wheel, though. I have had two for nearly a decade. May need to pony up for the M4 GT4 wheel soon.

forgot to mention that some simucube wheels are wireless and have quick connect
