The difference between tech4tourers genuine wheels and fake counterfeit offerings

why choose tech4tourers

We have recently observed a troubling increase in counterfeit and misleadingly advertised steering wheels that falsely claim to be crafted from premium materials such as carbon fiber and leather.

This article will delve into the distinctive qualities of Tech4Tourers steering wheels and explain why they stand out from the competition.

countrified carbon fiber vs t4t genuine

why you don't want fake Carbon Fiber

Firstly, the visual quality of fake carbon fiber is borderline embarrassing; its tacky silver finish leaves much to be desired. Real carbon fiber is crafted from organic polymer strands that are hand-woven into sheets, which are then meticulously layered over the wheel’s sporty ergonomics and sealed with an epoxy resin. This process requires considerable time, effort, and skill, as well as a significant financial investment.

In contrast, fake carbon fiber is produced using vinyl stickers printed to mimic the appearance of carbon fiber, but it has none of the properties of the real material. This method is cost-effective because it demands little time, effort, or skill. Consequently, the end product is of poor quality and likely to disappoint.

For the sake of time, we will leave it there.

Faux / Fake Leather vs T4T Genuine

why you don't want fake Leather

Why is faux leather inferior to real leather?

  1. Durability: Faux leather, often made from synthetic materials like polyurethane or vinyl, tends to be less durable than real leather. Over time, it can crack, peel, or become discolored, especially with frequent use. Real leather, on the other hand, is more resilient and ages gracefully, developing a unique patina that enhances its appearance.
  2. Maintenance and Repair: Real leather is easier to maintain and repair compared to faux leather. Genuine leather can be cleaned and conditioned to restore its original look, and minor damage can often be repaired by professionals. Faux leather, however, is less forgiving; once it starts to deteriorate, it’s difficult to fix, and its appearance can degrade quickly.
  3. Breathability and Comfort: Real leather is a natural material with breathable properties, making it more comfortable to use in various applications. It regulates temperature and moisture, enhancing overall comfort. Faux leather, being synthetic, does not have these breathable qualities and can feel less comfortable and more prone to heat buildup.
  4. Aesthetic and Feel: The texture and feel of real leather are typically more luxurious and refined compared to faux leather. Genuine leather has a unique grain and suppleness that faux leather often lacks. Faux leather may look similar at first glance, but it generally feels less premium and can have a plastic-like texture.

Fake Alcantara vs Genuine Italian alcantara

Why you don't want fake alcantara

Why is fake microfiber-based Alcantara inferior to genuine Italian Alcantara?

  1. Material Quality: Genuine Italian Alcantara is made from a proprietary blend of polyester and polyurethane, engineered to offer superior durability, texture, and performance. Fake microfiber-based Alcantara uses lower-quality materials that can lack the same level of refinement and longevity. This affects the overall feel and durability of the material.
  2. Texture and Feel: Authentic Italian Alcantara is renowned for its soft, suede-like texture and luxurious feel, providing a high-quality tactile experience. It is meticulously crafted to deliver a consistent and premium surface. Fake alternatives may replicate the look but often fall short in replicating the exact texture and tactile sensation, which can feel less sophisticated and more artificial.
  3. Durability and Performance: Genuine Alcantara is engineered for resilience and can withstand significant wear and tear while maintaining its appearance and performance over time. It resists fading, staining, and abrasion better than fake microfiber-based alternatives, which may deteriorate more quickly and show signs of wear sooner.
  4. Breathability and Comfort: Genuine Alcantara is designed to offer breathability and comfort, making it suitable for various applications where temperature regulation and moisture management are important. Fake microfiber-based Alcantara often lacks these properties, leading to a less comfortable experience, especially in high-use areas.
