I took 150 grit sandpaper and sanded to top and bottom section (not sides) of the steering wheel (taped the edges so I didn't sand the side sections by accident). Then took some aloe leather conditioner and rubbed it in. Looks like a Competition M3's steering wheel now and is real smooth.

I personally don't like an overly smooth steering wheel, I need something to really grip with
