Wheel Stand Pro 1Hello to all the readers of Xtremehardware.com, today we will review a particular product, dedicated to those who have passion for driving simulations both for PC and for console. We are talking about the stand for wheels and pedals called Wheel Stand Pro. This particular stand is compatible with all Thrustmaster series T and with the Logitech G27 and Fanatec wheels; alternatively, TH8A gear shifter and T3PA pedal can be used without problems as in our test. This stand, completely made of metal, doesn’t occupy much space thanks to the possibility to be bent and this thing will satisfy those who have problems with complete cockpit because of the limited space. Let’s have a look to the Wheel Stand Pro and to the results of our test. We will also see its functions in a video so we suggest you to follow the whole review. Here the Italian Review [Italian Version].

Detailed analysis and guide for the assembly

Removing the stand from its package and from the plastic bag, we can easily notice its high weight and the fact that it is completely bent. The stand is totally made of steel and it has four big rubber feet that prevent the stand from sliding on any kind of surface. The locking system of the single parts is easy and effective, in fact it uses simple terminals which tighten the external tube against the internal one.

In the central part, there are four rubbers which will fix the pedal and prevent it sliding while pressing on the pedals. We can also find a big black steel tube which offers a big bearing surface to guarantee the maximum stability. In the central part of this tube, there is the name of the product and two screws that let us move this part of the stand back and forth.

Let’s move to the mounting phase of the stand, starting from the installation of the shifter bracket and of the TH8A. At first, we have to disassemble the central tube from the stand to make the wheel installation easier. After positioning the support bracket of the wheel perpendicularly to the tube, we have to screw the black bracket with an hex and a screw. After that, we have to install the wheel on the main bracket and tighten two other screws that will fix both the wheel and the gear bracket. After that, we have to fix the TH8A gear shifter with two screws at the ends of the bracket.

Now, let’s move to the installation of the T3PA pedals. We have to move the four rubbers in the most comfortable position to put the pedals on them, we have to fit the pedals with the central tube of the stand and then we have to turn all upside down. Now, we have to take the metal bracket, compatible with the T3PA pedals, and screw it.

After installing the pedals, we have to reassemble the central tube with the gear and the wheel in the whole part of the stand. We leave you some photos of the stand, complete and ready to be used.
