Has anyone had one of their reshaped wheels before?
I read very good things online but you can’t beat some first hand experience (literally).

Significantly cheaper than going down the whole OEM Flat bottom steering wheel and airbag replacement route.

I had a vegan customers Golf leather steering wheel recovered in Alcantara once by them, did a great job. Customer was happy too.

Can't comment on Royal wheels but I don't get the fascination for flat bottomed wheels? My S4 has one and I think it looks odd, I'd much prefer it to be round.

In the '70s people laughed at the Austin Allegro's 'square' steering wheel, yet rave over Audi's odd shaped affair...? confused

He did send me an image of a round wheel that he made fatter, craftsmanship was spot on but it just looked odd. Like a regular wheel that had an allergic reaction or too much Botox biggrin

Proportions look way better when it’s squared off at the bottom. Don’t know why.

I’m used to BMW M wheels, which are waaaaay fatter.
