Anyone else not like the leather wrapped steering wheel provided? It seems too slippery and I tend to grip it too tight because of that. Anyone find a remedy or recommend a good cover? Ive tried a autoparts place's cover but it was too large and my wife complained. thanks
 
If you're thinking of wrapping your leather steering wheel with another wrap, it will be thicker no matter what. If you want to spend money on a custom wrap, redlinegoods.com offer a custom wrap.
 
I have the same complaint.I don't use any leather protectors on the wheel,these only make it worse.I use a leather cleaner only but it's still quite slick.

I just wish the leather was perforated,that would fix the issue.
 
The 9G's leather steering wheel is indeed a bit too smooth. I don't personally have a major issue with it, but I do miss the look and feel of the perforated leather wheel in my 7G. What a classy/sporty touch in an otherwise mundane family sedan...

I bought this:
It just slips on, which takes some doing, but it works great for me.
 
I have the 2017 Accord touring, and agree that the feel of the leather steering wheel isn't right. It is way too slippery. I recently drove the 2017 Acrua TLX, and its wheel felt right. I wonder if I brought it in and raised an issue, they would do something? Or besides adding a cover what others have done to improve the feel and reduce the slipperiness?
