    You should look up the rubber-ish/foam material that some people use to wrap over a stock wheel, and then you stitch a leather cover over it. You can add some nice thickness to a otherwise thin rim. I think I have some links saved if you want them.

      I do mostly thickened wheels that have the added foam padding. Hard to tell in pictures, but you can definitely tell in the feel.

                  I can take care of that as long as you are ok with doing it in black.

                  I can do your Alpina wheel as soon as I get my other machine back from being repaired.

                    Padded mtech 1 headed to jaker200 in NH.




                    Sorry for the pic quality. I have gotten lucky with some of the people getting their wheels done taking awesome photos, but I will see if I can get my hands on a decent camera since I only have photos of about a third of the wheels I do.

                        Does the padding get flattened and make the leather kinda lose over time?

                          The leather shrinks a little over time, so if the padding does "flatten" at all the leather will still be tight.
