Yes I do.

It keeps the factory wheel clean and new. It Makes the wheel a little larger. It has some minor padding and gripping.

So overall it is more comfortable.

I have had it since the truck was brand new. So I have had the cover for over 2 years.

So I cannot remeber where. The wifey bought it besides. I can tell you this, it is not the kind with big rubber nipples or anything else goofy. It is sleek and leather. It has some axtra leather where you grip. SO most people do not even relaize it is there.


The wifey thinks it came locally. Maybe an auto store or chinamart. ( walmart)

You can get them just about anywhere I never liked the feel of the bigger wheels GM now has. I liked the smaller ones like pre mid 80s.

Got one for the wife from wheelskins (http://www.wheelskins.com/)for her Grand cherokee when she had it. It wasn't expensive and it wasn't a slip on. You had to lace it on.

I have one of the iso types w/knobbies, squirrlies & ribbies. I don't notice it but the missus found it at the $ Tree store. She's big on such things and have shoe insoles of like configuration. My thot is that it preserves the wheel a bit longer ~ our son says the leather wheels don't last long ~ I took his word for it. Been install over 3yrs

I second the wheelskins. It takes some time to put it on but it looks very factory. Most people don't know that you even have one on, unless they grip the steering wheel. It does make it a bit thicker than the factory wheel.
