6S Sim Racing GlovesvsAluminum Button Color Kit

The Bottom Line

Choosing between the 6S Sim Racing Gloves and the Asetek Aluminum Button Color Kit comes down to whether you need universal, entry-level apparel or a premium, ecosystem-specific hardware upgrade. While one gets you basic grip on any wheel, the other targets tactile refinement for a very specific ecosystem.

Note

The Asetek Aluminum Button Color Kit is strictly locked to the Asetek SimSports ecosystem. Meanwhile, the 6S Sim Racing Gloves are completely universal and work with any setup.

Why choose 6S Sim Racing Gloves

4.0
Value Rating
  • They provide decent grip as a basic, entry-level option that works with any steering wheel.
  • They are a great bonus if you can get them bundled for free with a larger order.

Why choose Aluminum Button Color Kit

7.0
Value Rating
  • It significantly improves the tactile feel, grip, and overall build quality of your Asetek wheel compared to stock plastic caps.
  • It allows you to customize and "de-orange" your steering wheel for a highly premium look.

The Verdict

If you own an Asetek wheel, the Aluminum Button Color Kit delivers a genuine tactile upgrade despite the $89.00 cost. However, the 6S Sim Racing Gloves are tough to justify at $49.00 unless you secure them as a free promotional add-on.
