Frequently Asked Questions

Which Audi RS5 models and years does this steering wheel fit?

This steering wheel is designed for the Audi RS5 B9 platform from 2018 to 2024, including both the Coupe and Sportback body styles. Fitment depends on the specific production year, trim level, and original steering wheel configuration. Please confirm your vehicle VIN and current steering wheel type when requesting a quote.

Do I need to send my original steering wheel for the upgrade?

We recommend sending your original steering wheel core for the rebuild process to ensure proper airbag compatibility, button alignment, and electronic function retention. We can also supply a complete new steering wheel assembly in some configurations. Contact us to confirm the best option for your vehicle.

Will heated steering, lane assist, and paddle shifters still work?

Heated steering, lane keep assist, cruise control, paddle shifters, and touch controls are retained when the correct configuration is specified. Compatibility depends on your vehicle's year, original equipment, and hardware. We verify function retention against your specific VIN before production begins.

What is the MOQ and lead time for RS5 B9 steering wheels?

Our MOQ starts from 1 piece. In-stock configurations typically ship within 3 days. Custom builds take approximately 3 to 12 days depending on material selection, craftsmanship complexity, and order volume.

Who should install the custom steering wheel?

We strongly recommend installation by a qualified automotive technician. The steering wheel contains the airbag system and electronic components that require proper handling. Professional installation ensures safety, correct function retention, and warranty validity.

What is the flat-bottom design and is it available?

The flat-bottom (D-cut) design removes the lower section of the steering wheel rim for a sportier driving position and improved leg clearance. It is available for the RS5 B9 and maintains full OEM function retention including airbag compatibility. The flat-bottom profile is one of our most popular customization options.
