MPI Grip & Comfort Difference
MPI DIFFERENCE: BEST GRIP & COMFORT FOR RACE DRIVERS
MPI’s continued research on material ended in a very unique formulation of our polyurethane foam that is the soul of what you grip while racing or driving. Many hours have been spent with pro drivers like Kevin Harvick and Jimmie Johnson testing different products and finding out what gave them the best feeling and the best performance. This is why your hands are holding the BEST of the market.
But as we are not happy and we like to move forward we will continue to work with our partners in manufacturing and on track improving and setting the bar to the highest possible level.

WHY IS THE SHAPE OF THE STEERING WHEEL GRIP AS IT IS?
We shaped the wheel based on the form your hand takes when you make a fist. That is why the oval grip shape feels so steady and firm when you hold an MPI product. That is also why we changed the grip for each product, depending on if it’s built for a younger audience (our karting and Legends wheels) or for an adult audience (our MP, LM, and D products).
WHY DOES MPI SUEDE LOOK SO DARK AND FULL?
Our steering wheel saddler in Italy has been doing this job for over 40 years and has taught his son to follow in his footsteps.
Any suede used to make an MPI product, is chosen amongst many based on the precise inspection of its grain quality and absence of defects. No process has been left alone; even the small details are important in MPI.
