PRODUCT FEATURE: Faction Fab Steering Wheels

    15 MAY 2025 - Jeff Willis

    On this week’s product feature, we would like to highlight in our opinion, what could be one of the best interior upgrades that you can do to your Subaru. And that mod is a Faction Fab Steering Wheel. Having a fresh new steering wheel will really breathe new life into an older Subaru, while enhancing the interior on newer models. But let’s talk about some of the key benefits as to why the Faction Fab units are highly desired, and why their steering wheels make for an awesome investment in your Subaru.

     

     

     

    THE FEEL

    Faction Fab’s line of steering wheels features a thicker grip. This makes for a better driving experience as a thicker grip provides the driver with a feeling of better control and feedback from daily driving situations to high-performance driving conditions on the track. The material options are never a bad choice, and each of their steering wheels has been designed with that GT3-inspired center stitch that helps keep you centered while driving.

     

     

    THE DESIGN

    If you notice one of the key features that all Faction Fab Steering Wheels share, is the D-shape design. Most modern exotics and supercars will come standard with a D-shape steering wheel which is derived from Formula One racing vehicles due to the very limited space in the cockpit. The flat bottom of these race-inspired steering wheels has been designed to provide the driver with more leg room so that you can comfortably turn the wheel during high-performance driving conditions without any interferences with your legs.

     

     

    MADE USING MODERN AND EXOTIC MATERIALS

    Most if not all of today’s modern high-end sports cars and super cars will have (3) main materials that make up the interior. That is carbon fiber, suede, and leather. Now STI models will come with suede as a very nice interior option, but the great aspect of these Faction Fab designs, is that they don’t go over the top to the point to where they are tacky. There are several aftermarket steering wheel companies that outsource inferior products that cheapen the interior. Faction Fab utilizes premium-grade materials designed to last, feel awesome to the touch, and will complement the design of your factory interior.  

     

     

    RETAINS ALL OEM FUNCTIONS

     

     

    The best part about the Faction Fab Steering Wheel upgrade, is that it retains all OEM functions. This has been a struggle for owners of modern cars who want to upgrade to an aftermarket steering wheel because many times, aftermarket steering wheels are race-use only since they eliminate the airbag, and eliminate many of the factory-controlled functions on the steering wheel such as volume, mobile device controls, cruise controls, etc. Faction Fab Steering Wheels are model-specific for a few Subaru models, making them a direct replacement for your OEM wheel while retaining your OEM airbag, as well as all OEM steering wheel functions.

     

     

    FINAL WORD: WE’RE HOLDING THE LINE – IT’S THE BEST INTERIOR UPGRADE

    Your steering wheel is the key utensil when driving other than your pedals and shift knob. You’ve got to always keep your hands on it, so why not make the driving experience a little more enjoyable? Faction Fab has been solidifying their presence in the Subaru aftermarket performance industry, and their products continue to impress us. Like the COBB Accessport, the FF Steering Wheel should be a staple inside every applicable Subaru.
