Got any pics of what you mean? The 2015 CTR?
If so, no they're standard and control the radio, i-Mid vehicle information screen, hands free telephone (on rear) on the left, cruise control and speed limiter on the right. All standard 9th Gen Civic stuff really.
I've not seen any aftermarket wheels on them yet, but I'm sure it's possible. You would lose all of the functionality of the i-Mid though (top info screen on the dash).

I'm talking about stuff like this: http://autonetmagz.net/wp-content/uploads/2015/06/honda-civic-type-r-interior.jpg looks terrible in my opinion. As someone who sets n forgets stuff like that. I hate having distractions on the wheel taking up space. Never used it, never will!
The i-Mid can't be controlled any other way at all? Guess I'll have to go test drive one and see if it really is the dealbreaker I think it'll be.

So you set and forget radio station, never change to USB input for your MP3s, never change the volume, set and forget cruise control?
No you can't control the i-Mid any way other than with the steering wheel controls.
Yes I think you need to sit in one, or any modern Honda. They all have pretty much the same wheel setup now.

I don't really notice them anymore, I totally forgot until Loxy posted what they actually do, I don't use cruise control, tried hands free but every time the phone rang it made me jump so I don't bother anymore, Volume I still use the stereo as it's in a nice position (I also forgot about the one on the wheel) the only one I use daily is the info button, every time I get in before setting off I check outside temp then it's over to the oil/coolant pressure & temp gauges.
They might look distracting but after a few wks you won't notice them, the display is set up so you see the Rd, speedo & gauges in front of you, you'll find you'd be in that position the whole journey
