Or you have manky hands.

I recovered a steering wheel with fake suede, from a sofa, it is still good now after 9 months.

Fake suede != real suede.

It's the oil and grease in your hands that kills the suede, if you spent as much time as you do driving your car rubbing your suede shoes with your bare hand, the result would be the same.

Different suede kinds of suede, have you ever looked at chrome suede and how that ages?

Would a shoe waterproofer or anti stain mean that they would be an issue?

Also should you be holding the steering lightly, not gripping on for dear life?
