Default Wheelskins?

Anyone have a good souce for Wheelskins?

Also, I have the gold Tundra, what color leather matches the closest? I'm thinking the "Sand" will be the closest. I plan to order the two-tone. Sand top and bottom, and black on the right and left.

I have these on my son's '96 Accord and they are top notch!

Check out www.American-stitches.com. They did the wheel on my 01. They did a great job. Added 1/8 inch of padding also. The color matched perfectly.

At what cost? I didn't see any pricing.

The leather was 200.00, plus 40.00 for the 1/8 inch padding and 12.00 for shipping. They did it in 2 days and overnighted back. The wheel looked great. It was nice and fat and felt great. The color was a perfect match and the stitching looked factory. I have a 04 now and plan to do the same. The guy told me they do it for the local toyota dealer down there. I don't understand why a 32k truck doesn't come with a leather wheel? oh well.

I had a dark blue Wheelskin cover on my old Supra and it matched and fit perfect. When I first got my Tundra, I ordered the sand colored Wheelskin cover for my Tundra with oak interior from JCWhitney and it did not match worth a flip so I sent it back.

DC Car Care carries Wheelskins and I now see that they carry the oak color. I've been thinking about ordering one, but just haven't gotten around to it. I've ordered cleaning stuff from DC Car Care and they were a pleasure to do business with and their prices were in line with other sellers. Here is there link for the Wheelskins >>> http://www.dccarcare.com/whlskns.html

If you get one, please report back how it looks and fits so that we all don't have to go through the same buy/try/return.
