Z4 sport wheel hurts
I don't know about you guys but when I drive this Z for long trips, my hand starts to hurt holding the hard plastic of the sport steering wheel. Coming from the M performance wheel when I had my M, I guess I got use to the softer wheel or the fullness of the M wheel.
For those who have the M 35is wheel, is it a thicker softer feel than the hard plastic sport wheel? Does anyone know if there are any alacantara wheels out there that will fit a 09 Z4 35i? I searched but all I find are wheels for 135, 335, and M cars.

No need to hold the wheel with a GI Joe Kung Fu grip. Relax!!!

Thanks for the feedback. I was hoping it would come with the same feel as the M wheel but wasn't sure. I wonder if it is a just a simple exchange to make it fit on my car.
