so it will be thicker than a regular steering wheel.
also it will be slicker if you're not using gloves and you want to grab the none leather area.

you will have better grip on the factory nismo wheel. So decide if that matters to you.

I was going to get one but convinced myself the the Alcantara Nismo wheel is classier and more aesthetically appealing.

If i did go for carbon, definitely have to be matte finish.

Thank you for your honest feedback. I was thinking the same thing. The last thing I want in an apex is a slick wheel that will slide through my hands

Also most prefer a round wheel where most carbon wheel have a flat bottom, you want to predict where your hands will be when the wheel is spinning.

That is an excellent point. I think only a few times, did I need to turn my steering wheel so much I would need to touch what is considered the bottom.
