This is a flat-bottom custom Audi sport steering wheel engineered to elevate the sport interior of any compatible Audi vehicle.
- The rim is constructed entirely from genuine carbon fiber, presenting the characteristic woven-weave surface texture in a high-gloss finish across the upper arc and lower flat section.
- The left and right grip zones are wrapped in premium suede — also referred to as alcantara-style material — delivering a matte, tactile surface that contrasts cleanly against the gloss carbon panels.
- Integrated carbon fiber paddle shifters extend from the rear of the wheel body, finished in the same woven carbon pattern as the rim.
- The center spoke features a gloss black plastic cover plate housing the full suite of factory multifunction controls, an RS-badged drive select button, and a prominent red START/STOP engine button, all arranged symmetrically across the dash-facing surface.
- An LED light strip and display ring are embedded into the upper rim, adding a dynamic visual element to the car’s interior when the OBD module is connected.

Functies
Genuine carbon fiber rim — lightweight, rigid and race derived
The Audi carbon fiber steering wheel rim is produced from the actual carbon fiber, not wrapped or simulated, and offers the benefits of a carbon fiber rim: a high strength-to-weight ratio, vibration damping and dimensional stability over time. This aftermarket steering wheel is 1.7kg in total weight for less unsprung mass than a standard OEM (original equipment manufacturer) steering wheel, making the driving experience more responsive in sport cars.
Grip zones with suede / alcantara give the bike a comfortable and personalized feel
The suede left and right grip sections create a dry and non-slip surface which improves grip feel when driving in a spirited manner. The ergonomic hand positioning of the grip shape provides ideal hand placement for long sessions and makes this custom steering wheel equally effective for road use and track days. The suede surface also doesn’t heat up or change texture over time – a very important attribute for aftermarket companies who specify interior components.
LED display and RS drive mode — active interior integration
The wheel features an integrated LED light ring and display panel that activates via OBD module connection, giving the vehicle’s dash a performance-oriented read-out without chassis modification. The RS-style drive select button enables direct access to Audi’s drive mode system on compatible platforms. The red START/STOP engine button is wired through the existing factory module interface, ensuring OEM-compatible operation without additional relay wiring.
Carbon fiber paddle shifters — factory-feature compatible
Matching carbon fiber paddle shifters are included and replicate the tactile feedback of the factory sport paddles. These are designed to connect to vehicles that already have factory paddle shifter wiring in place — no aftermarket module conversion is required on supported chassis. The carbon finish matches the rim for a fully cohesive sport steering wheel aesthetic.
