PRODUCT DETAILS

Supercar DNA: Handcrafted Audi R8 & TT Style Custom Steering Wheel

Bring the apex of Audi performance to your daily drive. Our Custom R8 & TT Style Steering Wheel captures the aggressive, motorsport-inspired soul of Audi’s flagship supercar. Known for its thick, contoured grip and iconic flat-bottom silhouette, this wheel is designed for drivers who want the most tactile and visually striking cockpit upgrade available.

At Carrera Custom Garage, we believe performance should never compromise safety. Every wheel is built on a genuine OEM Audi frame, ensuring perfect spline alignment and 100% structural integrity. This is a premium "factory-plus" modification, engineered to bridge the gap between track-day utility and show-car luxury.

Bespoke Performance Features

  • The R8 Profile: Features a race-inspired Deep Flat-Bottom design and aggressive side bolstering to provide maximum leverage and knee clearance during high-speed maneuvers.

  • Exotic Material Palette: * Carbon Fiber: Choose from traditional 3K Twill, stealthy Matte, or modern Forged Carbon—all finished with a multi-stage UV-resistant clear coat.

    • Grip Surfaces: Premium Italian Alcantara for ultimate sweat-resistance and grip, or perforated Nappa leather for a breathable, high-end feel.

  • Signature RS Detailing: Hand-stitched in your choice of color (RS Red, Mexico Blue, or Silver) and topped with a custom 12 o’clock racing stripe for a centered visual reference.

  • Optional LED Performance Hub: Integrate a vivid LED display to monitor real-time RPM, speed, engine load, and lap times directly on the upper rim of your wheel.

The Carrera Custom Standard

  • OEM Core Integrity: Unlike budget replicas, we use original cores to guarantee a vibration-free experience and perfect airbag fitment.

  • Electronic Compatibility: Retains all factory scroll wheels and multi-function button features.

  • Enhanced Shifting: Fully compatible with OEM paddle shifters or our upgraded Extended Magnetic Paddles for a crisp, mechanical engagement.

The Ultimate Retrofit for Audi Performance Models

This R8/TT Style wheel is designed for vehicles utilizing the Round Airbag architecture. It is a direct plug-and-play solution for the following models:

Technical Installation Notes

  • Installation: Direct bolt-on replacement. Professional installation is recommended to ensure the clock spring and airbag harness are correctly aligned.
  • Airbag Requirements: This wheel is designed to reuse your factory Round Airbag. (Airbag and button electronics are transferred from your original unit).
  • Heating Function: If your vehicle is equipped with a heated steering wheel, please select the "Retain Heating" option to ensure the heating element is integrated into the custom build.
  • No Coding Required: If you transfer your original button modules, no OBD11 or VCDS programming is necessary. Standard functions will work immediately upon installation.

Pro Tip: To complete the R8 aesthetic, we recommend adding our Custom Carbon Fiber Airbag Coverwith matching stitching to replace the standard plastic trim.

CRAFTSMANSHIP

How Your Steering Wheel Is Built

Every wheel starts as raw carbon pre-preg and ends as a precision-finished piece. Here's what happens between your order and your front door.
1

Carbon Fibre Layup & Vacuum Forming

Real 3K twill carbon fibre pre-preg is hand-laid into the mould. Vacuum bagging removes air and compacts every layer. The blank cures in a heat-controlled oven — the same process used in motorsport and aerospace. This is genuine structural carbon, not a decorative film or wrap.

2

Trimming, Sanding & UV Lacquering

Once cured, carbon sections are CNC-trimmed to exact tolerances and progressively sanded from 400 to 2000 grit. Three coats of UV-stabilised lacquer lock in the gloss finish and prevent yellowing — the most common failure point on cheap carbon parts.

3

Alcantara Cutting & Hand-Stitching

Genuine Alcantara panels are precision-cut from full-grade stock not microfibre imitations. Each panel is hand-applied and double-stitched with your chosen colour thread. Seams are finished flat so there's no ridge under your hand.

4

Hub Fitting & 14-Point Inspection

The model-specific hub adapter is fitted and torque-verified. Every wheel passes a 14-point inspection covering carbon surface, lacquer clarity, stitch tension, seam alignment, and hub tolerance. Anything that fails is rebuilt — not shipped.

INSTALLATION

How to Fit Your Steering Wheel

Full fitting guide, hub adapter, and support with every order. A qualified technician can complete this in under an hour.

1

Disconnect Battery — Wait 15 Minutes

Disconnect the negative battery terminal and wait at least 15 minutes. This fully discharges the airbag system's capacitors and makes the airbag module safe to handle.
⚠️ Never skip this step: An active airbag system can deploy without warning.
2

Remove Airbag Module

Locate the access holes on the steering column back and use the appropriate Torx bit (commonly T30) to release the airbag retaining clips — refer to your car's service manual for the exact size. Disconnect the yellow airbag connector and horn ring carefully. Set the airbag aside flat and safe.
💡 Photograph all connectors before disconnecting.
3

Remove Factory Steering Wheel

Mark 12 o'clock on the column with a paint pen before removal. Remove the central retaining nut — size varies by manufacturer, typically 24–27mm. Use a steering wheel puller if the wheel is stuck on the splines — never force it.
4

Mount Hub Adapter

Slide the included model-specific hub adapter onto the column splines, aligned to your 12 o'clock mark. Torque the centre nut to your vehicle's factory spec (typically 30–50Nm — check your service manual). The hub carries all electrical connectors through to the new wheel.
5

Mount Wheel & Airbag — Reconnect & Test

Connect all wiring harnesses. Mount the wheel, seat the airbag module in the centre boss until it clicks, and reconnect all airbag connectors. Reconnect the battery. Verify: airbag light clears, horn works, cruise and audio controls function correctly.
💡 An OBD2 scanner may be needed to clear airbag codes after reconnection.

350mm is slightly smaller than the standard Audi OEM wheel (typically 370–375mm) and is preferred by RS and S-Series owners for a sharper, more direct feel. 370mm is available for those who prefer a size closer to the factory diameter. Both are available in all materials and profiles.

100% genuine. The carbon sections use real 3K twill carbon fibre pre-preg, vacuum-formed and oven-cured — not a vinyl wrap or film. The Alcantara is genuine Alcantara S.p.A. full-grade suede — not microfibre. Leather options use Nappa full-grain leather.

Build time is 10–15 business days. Shipping after dispatch: USA 7–12 days · UK 5–10 days · Europe 5–8 days · Australia 10–16 days. Express options available at checkout. All orders include full courier tracking.

Our 360-day warranty covers all manufacturing defects: carbon delamination, clearcoat peeling or yellowing, Alcantara separation, stitching failures, and fitment issues caused by our manufacturing. It does not cover accidental damage or improper installation. Contact us on WhatsApp with photos and we'll resolve it fast.

Custom steering wheels are road legal in most countries when fitted with a functioning airbag — which this wheel is designed to accept. Legality requirements vary by jurisdiction. In the UK, a functional airbag is required for MOT. EU and US regulations similarly require working airbag systems. Always verify with local authorities and your installer.
