Steering Wheel Cover?

Not exactly a "preformance accessory", but I wasn't sure where to put this.
Steering wheel is starting to delaminate and I need a good cover. Don't mind paying for quality, I just don't want something that looks and feels cheap (although the SpongeBob one at Wal-Mart caught my eye AND it matches my floor mats)
.

Anybody got any recommendations?

The ex got one from walmart about 2 years ago. It is plain black leather. It has a horrible life with farming and construction. After I clean it with saddle soap, still looks brand new.

Think she paid about $12.00 for it.

I have a Mossy Oak one. Matches my floor mats. It's cheap, and so are the mats. But they arent to bad. Well worth the $35 for the three of them. If it gets trashed in a year or so, I'll get another one, I think it was $10. My wife was at the parts store with me, saw them and suggested getting them for my truck. If my wife wants to spend money on the truck without me suggesting it, the answer is ALWAYS yes.

And techinically it's Performance and Accessories

Thanks ya'll. For the prices you guys have mentioned, I don't have much to lose. Might give those a shot. Are those a lace up kind, or do they just stretch over the wheel?

Hey Rob,

My girlfriend has a nice blue steering wheel cover that says "Cowgirl Up" - should be right up your alley - for the right price I will box it up and Fed Ex it to ya (will also include some bobby pins and used lipsticks).

I think the top dog of steering wheel covers is Wheelskins. It's a leather wrapped one just like the factory one. I haven't got one.... YET. My wheel is all ripped up but I hate spending money on cosmetic stuff! It's about $40 from geno's garage if I remember correctly.

Mine just streches over the wheel. And I'm with you, for the price, I can't really loose.

And if I were you I would take the good Dr. up on his offer

Hey Doc,
I'll trade you straight up for the "Boyz II Men" and "Menudo" air freshners you were asking about

Cool, that looks like the one rjohnson had on his truck when he was at my place and we did his mystery switch. Forgot to ask him. The black one is like $30. That is much less than I would have thought. I will probably get that one.
