Custom steering wheels for the BMW X1 E84
The first X1, the E84, was built from 2009 to 2015 on the same base as the E90 3 Series, and it shares the same three-spoke wheel. That makes every option of the 3 Series wheel available for your X1.
This page covers the E84 X1 in sDrive and xDrive form, built 2009 to 2015.
Which wheel does the builder show?
The three-spoke wheels of the E90 era. The M Sport, Sport and M Performance wheels share one thick rim with different centres, and the Base Wheel is the standard wheel with its own rim. Every shape and finish can be previewed on each of them.
An X1 is a family car that does a lot of parking and city driving, so the sides of the rim usually wear through first.
What you can change on your X1 wheel
- Wheel: M Sport, Sport, M Performance or the Base Wheel.
- Shape: the OEM shape, a flat bottom or a square shape, and a round sport grip on the Base Wheel.
- Top and bottom: leather, carbon fibre, forged carbon, piano black or wood: Burl Wood, Poplar Light, Poplar Brown.
- Sides: perforated leather, smooth nappa or Alcantara.
- Trim: the centre trim in Alcantara, carbon, forged carbon or piano black.
- Airbag cover: wrapped in leather or Alcantara.
- 12 o'clock stripe: M tricolour, yellow, white, red, orange or black.
- Functions: on the M Sport, Sport and M Performance wheels, their electronics, paddle shifters and heating. The Base Wheel is a plain wheel without these options.
Build ideas for the X1
Poplar Light: the Sport centre in the OEM shape with Poplar Light top and bottom and the factory perforated sides.
M look: the M Sport wheel with a clean flat bottom, carbon fibre and Alcantara sides.
All weather: the OEM shape with heating added, smooth leather sides and a leather airbag cover.
Before you order
Every build starts either from an M Sport, Sport or Base Wheel that we source, or from your own wheel. The M Performance version needs your own wheel. Because the switches on the wheel depend on how the car was specified, we go through your layout with you after ordering.
Sending your own wheel? Keep the airbag unit at home; we do not accept or return airbags. Have it refitted by a qualified mechanic afterwards.
X1 steering wheel questions
Is the X1 wheel the same as the 3 Series one?
Yes. The E84 X1 uses the same three-spoke wheel as the E90 generation 3 Series.
Can I have the M Performance centre on a wheel you source?
No. We source the M Sport, Sport and Base wheels; for the M Performance one, send us your own wheel.
How long does it take?
Most builds take one to two weeks in our workshop. We email you photos of the finished wheel to approve, then it ships to you anywhere in the world.
