How are your Grips looking in the Meantime? Mine do have a huge amount of wear after only 10h of use with gloves.

I've gone back to using the Ascher for the wireless functionality but a few hours driving didn't have any noticable effect. Are they peeling or graining?

Very thorough review, thanks for the breakdown of every part of this wheel. Shame about the clutch settings, hopefully they push an update out for that.

Just got mine today and I agree with pretty much everything you said. I'd say it's comparable to the Fanatec V2.5 I just sold but more comfortable. Got a feeling they will sell a ton of these..

Great Review mate! I have one question. Can you attach the SC QR directly to the wheel without a spacer or do I need a spacer to fit the QR to the wheel ?

@@NicoSpory thanks! No spacer needed but it might be a little tight without it. For a budget option I've used this one from Amazon and it worked well for me a.co/d/8ybY3r6

u can replace the encoder knobs by pulling them carefully. there are many alternatives in metal

Mine didn't want to budge so I didn't want to force them. Have you been able to get yours off? Previous wheels I've had with knobs that pull off weren't nearly as tight.

Carbon fiber IS a type of plastic. So technical, that is carbon fiber wheel. It is made from carbon fibers flakes and epoxy matrix. Real carbon fiber is not made from flakes, but carbon sheets. So it is carbon fiber, but just not the strongest kind of carbon fiber plastic.

Yeah the whole value proposition here is really based on how much the wheel is compared to other offerings in the market. So if the price creeps up like that and it doesn't for other options it would definitely be less enticing.

How is this gt style rim a formula style rim? This is way too large to be a formula rim.
@elgatoconlapipa
6 ай бұрын
Traditionally speaking the shape of this wheel is formula style and I wouldn't consider 300mm to be too large to be formula style. The traditional shape of a GT rim is more in line with what you'd find in a road car. GT cars have adopted formula style rims in recent years. The offerings from GSI and Cube Controls are a good example of what would traditionally be considered GT vs Formula style and some of their formula rims are actually larger than this one. The line has become blurry though.

@@elgatoconlapipa 300mm is definitely too large. 290mm would be the max id consider useable. 300mm is just not quick enough to turn for a formula car. I have tried it, it feels sluggish.

@@azamat19 that sounds like a preference rather than anything else which is fair. But again, where are wheels larger than this one that are still considered formula style. Personally 300mm feels good to me but I do prefer the size of the Ascher at 285mm. 300mm is about as large as I'd want to go but it's a comfortable size.

@@elgatoconlapipa don't know about if its a preference. The rim has to fit the car. The ascher racing you have mentioned, polsimer f74, cube controls f core, asetek la prima have all done a compromise between formula and gt with 285 to 290mm. 300mm is just a pure gt rim which could be used in a formula car, if someone just wants to drive it occasionally. It won't turn quick enough for anyone who wants high performance. The fanatec formula rims for example are 265mm and feel really bad on a gt car, but thats still better than using the McLaren gt3 rim on a formula car.
