Do any of you use driving gloves?

Lups · 01-25-2016, 12:02 AM

I really should've bought a pair. They'd match my bitching skoda.

Those that do use driving gloves, what type of material do you use? I have an m performance wheel that i'll be installing soon and don't want to wear out the alcantara pre-maturely

The Bmw gloves are awesome.

I wear them 50% of the time. I like the way they feel and I think my grip is better.

Sweaty palms can be remedied by point the vents at your hands.

I use them exclusively when going to the bathroom.
Nothing but the best for the extra speed, the superior grip, and the improved signalling visibility. It's all about ///M performance!

I wear them solely as a tribute to Nick Cassavetes in The Wraith. I model all my major life decisions on what that character would have done.

Hell, I'm lucky if I'm wearing underwear!

Well, 31.58% of pollees think they scream "trying too hard" over other stuff ... it was the #2 most voted option after the BMW Carbon Fiber Seat Belt Cover Shoulder Pad Cushion

Sometimes some people need to keep their private/secret habits to themselves.

Driving gloves anywhere but on a race track being top of that list.

Fast4d · 01-25-2016, 10:30 AM

are these bmw gloves fingerless?

Naz24 · 01-25-2016, 12:06 PM

My friend drives around in his 1950s Mercedes 190SL with a racing windshield in Goggles and gloves...

Thats how he picks up girls. I swear to god it works.

leather gloves in an F80? Maybe not.

gblansten · 01-25-2016, 12:08 PM

I think driving gloves come for free if you buy those puddle lights for the doors that shine the ///M symbol on the ground.

That's awesome!!!

DaBean · 01-25-2016, 12:24 PM

I don't, but I'm thinking about using them for longer drives to avoid sweaty palms...

I do keep a stash of baby wipes in the glove compartment to combat dirty hands

I would say that I got them as a gift, but that would mean that someone likes me.
