Russell,
I solved this problem by injecting one CC of "superthin" Cyanoacrylate
glue every few inches under the rubber grip against the metal rim.
Getting the glue into the syringe was a challenge. Injecting into
the steering wheel took a minute. I used an 18 gauge needle for the injection
and injected from the inner-rear so any neelde tracks would be less
obvious. So far it works great. Many months of frequent use and
no loss of adhesion.
