Hi,

I just replaced my original steering wheel with a sports steering wheel (see photo). The surface of the wheel is very slippery.

Anyone else experienced this ?

Any thought son what to use to reduce slipperiness !

Prior to driving the vehicle, make hands sweaty and dip your palms face down in a bucket of sand....drive off and feel the increased grippiness (is that a word?) :D
 
Leather or vinyl, is it a known manufacturer or a cheap internet purchase?
The feel of a steering wheel can vary but I can't honestly say that I have come across one that is slippery whether it be a budget Mountney, Raid or high end Momo.

You could fit a steering wheel cover, the lace-on leather type are excellent and would fix your problem completely.

Is it a used one ?? Perhaps its been cleaned with some dash cleaner or similar try cleaning
it with leather cleaner or 40 grit sand paper if that doesn't work. :D
