Me too XDI saw the title of this topic and thought: finally news from logitech!
But then....
How did logitech announce the g27? 2months before release?

They kept the announcement very silent with the G27. At that time I was in a beta test team for a simracing game. The company already had the wheels for months to make them compatible with their games before Logitech announced it officially.
Maybe they are waiting for the new generation of consoles first?
Any sources for your claims?
Fanatec & Thrustmaster are certainly not the high sector

Suede rims are overrated. Yes, they look good, but they wear fast and grip terribly without racing gloves. And only a handful of people use gloves when simracing.
A better solution would not be leather, but rubber. Anyone remember the Momo Racing from Logitech? It had a rubber rim and I loved it so much that I actually tried to mod it onto my G27, but it never worked out. Rubber grips better with bare hands which is why its the better solution for simracing.
Best solution is Alcantara. It´s a synthetic leather that is designed to act as Suede.
You can find it in cars from a M-sport 3-series up to cars like the 599 GTO.
It will last the cars lifetime easily,
Rubber grips better in the beginning. When hands gets a little sweaty the grip will decrease.
Alcantara starts out with slightly less grip but as the micro sweat continues the grip will increase massively.
So you´ll have excellent grip throughout the race no matter how much your hands sweat.
