Why I use a /padded/ steering wheel.  Hard to slip when your grip is
indented into the padding.  The padding is for both thermal insulation
and for grip.  In fact, the padded steering wheel cover gives me more
grip than the stock steering wheel.  However, it's not for the type of
driver that likes to run their finger inside the steering wheel when
turning since that's where are the edges of the wrap-over cover.
