Any idea on the price? I would imagine they'd be the high water mark.

Sounds to me like the lawyer & the insurance agent are trying to take you for a ride. Imagine this...
Pablo has a flat at home and removes the tire and rolls it to the tire shop. Tire shop guy finds a leaky valve stem core and replaces it and adds air. Pablo returns and puts tire back on car but forgets to torque the nuts. Wheel flies off at 50 mph and he crashes into a bus full of school kids. How is the tire shop at fault?
Now if the tire shop guy gives advice to Pablo on how to tighten the lug nuts and then we may have a case on unclear info and "he said" "she said".
If this kind of stuff stands up the business owners may as well go out of business.

Simply have someone print up some liability release forms. Have every client sign one & keep copies.

I agree with Spoon. Your lawyer/insurance rep is taking you for a ride. Another scenario could be: putting in a big power stereo/speakers in your car. With the volume up, you didn't hear the siren, so you got T-boned by a fire truck! Is this the fault of the stereo manufacturer? Definitely NOT.

FWIW, Redline Goods doesn't seem to have any legal issues selling steering wheel covers.

Agreed.
If you were making a new steering wheel assembly, that would be a different matter,
because that would need to be tested for strength and crash worthiness etc.
Recovering a wheel is no different than repainting your dash or putting new covers on your pedals.
Otherwise, Dallas Steering Wheel would have the same issues.

Thanks for the names of other steering wheel cover resources. Good info in case it's needed in the future.

This, and as always the safety net of " Offroad Use Only". Done.
