How to choose a wheel base or bundle

Start with your platform, then check the complete driving controls and every connection. Choose a combination you can actually mount and use.

Choose the platform first

Confirm your console generation and games. In Fanatec’s ecosystem, PlayStation licensing is in the base; Xbox licensing is in the wheel.

  • Check the exact model and variant, not just the brand.
  • A USB connector alone does not prove console compatibility.

Price the complete package

List the base, rim, pedals, quick release, power supply and mount. Mark what your chosen bundle includes before adding separate components.

  • Compare exact variants rather than starting prices.
  • Allow for shipping and any required adapters.

Check mounting and communication separately

A rim needs a matching physical attachment and a supported data connection. The MOZA Universal Hub connects supported MOZA devices to a PC.

  • Check the hub’s supported models and the base’s adapter requirements.
  • Do not assume a matching bolt pattern makes buttons or paddles work.

Match the base to your mounting

Check the base’s mounting drawing against your cockpit or desk clamp. Choose usable torque and adjustment options for your setup, rather than buying by peak torque alone.

  • Confirm mounting hardware and the correct power supply.
  • Plan future rims before committing to an ecosystem.

Confirm the exact model, variant and current manufacturer manual before ordering.
