Why Exped Offroad Steering Wheels Meet — and Exceed — ADR Standards

Why Exped Offroad Steering Wheels Meet — and Exceed — ADR Standards

Upgrading your 4x4’s steering wheel isn’t just about looks — it’s about control, comfort, and confidence behind the wheel. That’s why Exped Offroad steering wheels are engineered to meet and exceed Australia’s strict ADR standards, ensuring they’re as safe and road-ready as they are tough.

Built to Australian Design Rules (ADRs) — and Beyond

The Australian Design Rules (ADRs) set the benchmark for vehicle safety and performance across the country. They ensure that every steering component performs reliably and safely in real-world conditions.

At Exped Offroad, we design every steering wheel and hub assembly in line with these standards — and then go further. Our engineering, materials, and fitment processes go beyond baseline compliance to deliver unmatched strength, reliability, and driver confidence.

Engineered for Precision and Strength

Every Exped Offroad steering wheel is developed using advanced CAD modelling and precision machining to guarantee structural integrity and perfect fitment. We don’t just match factory standards — we refine them.

Our difference:

  • High-grade materials for maximum strength and long-term durability.

  • Tight-tolerance manufacturing for a precise, secure fit.

  • Rigorous quality checks to ensure every unit meets spec.

  • Vehicle-specific design that maintains OEM steering geometry and safety features.

The result? A steering wheel that feels better, lasts longer, and keeps your 4x4 compliant.

Designed for Safety and Compatibility

Exped Offroad steering wheels are purpose-built to integrate seamlessly with factory steering columns, airbags, and electronics. We ensure:

  • No interference with airbag deployment or clockspring alignment.

  • Retention of factory sensors, wiring, and horn systems.

  • Safe and correct fitment torque and geometry.

That means your vehicle remains fully roadworthy and compliant while gaining a premium offroad driving experience.

Verified for Compliance and Quality

Our steering wheels are developed in consultation with qualified compliance engineers to confirm that they meet all relevant ADR requirements for steering components. Every production run is backed by documented quality control and batch traceability — so you can be confident that your wheel is built to the same standard as the one before it.

We don’t just meet the rules — we exceed them to ensure safety, reliability, and total peace of mind.
