Default Steering wheel cover

What's up dudes? I'm looking for a nice steering wheel cover. I bought one from WalMart a few months ago. I put it on in the parking lot. I could tell right away that it was too small but that didn't stop me from putting it on. What started as a small rip is now almost all the way around the cover.

I figured since my hands are on the steering wheel most of the time I drive that I should invest in a decent cover. I've looked at a few websites and am kinda leaning toward the sow on kind but most of the pictures I see make the cover look out of place on the steering wheel. I would like the cover to be pleasing to the eyes as well as my hands. A lot of the time when I get in the truck my hands can be pretty sweaty and filthy so it needs to be durable.

If you guys have any recommendations I would appreciate the help.

I almost got the same one but was worried it may make the steering wheel feel to big.

wound up getting a 10 dollar slip on from auto zone. big tip to let it sit in the sun for a few hours. it goes on so much easier. makes my steering wheel feel huge. i kinda see that as a plus though

I found it best to use a hair dryer and just put it on high heat while you stretch it
