R56 Steering wheel uncomfortable?

Steering wheel uncomfortable?
I recently purchased an 07 MCS (PW/B) and I am really enjoying the car. I have never even been in a MINI before this one.
Question...
Does the stock steering wheel 'soften' up a bit over time? I'm not sure if it's because I have long fingers or what, but I find the steering wheel a bit uncomfortable after extended driving. It's a bit too STIFF and not very forgiving.
Anyone else feel that way or am I out of my mind?

I'm a little confused about the size. Did you use their model info and get a 14 x 4-1/8" cover? I measure my MCS wheel at 14.5".
They list the MCS 2004-2007 as the same.
Did yours fit properly?
Thanks,

Sounds like you're in the market for the upgraded JCW alcantra steering wheel. I found the stock wheel too small for my hands as well. Kinda like trying to play tennis with too small a handle diameter. I just bought some Wheelskin steering wheel covers and it feels much better now.
I'll look into the JCW wheel. Thanks!
