Easily doable -

Let's say for example there are 5 wheel designs for the golf range:
Basic (no SW controls)
Basic (with SW controls)
Plush (with SW controls)
Plush (GT spec perhaps, a leatherish grip)
Sports wheel (GTD/I/R)

Then remember at least 4 of those will need will need to have a DSG version

Then remember they will be available in different colours/stitching for both DSG and non DSG

Then some may have an R line badge on

Then different markets have different specs and colours etc, it soon adds up
