The Bottom Line

Asetek's accessory lineup targets two completely different bottlenecks in your rig setup: one liberates your steering wheel to work with rival wheelbases, while the other anchors your high-torque wheelbase to a standard desk. Choosing between them depends entirely on whether you are trying to bridge ecosystems or secure your physical setup.

Watch out

US buyers often face high shipping fees and import tariffs for the QR Adapter Plate due to frequent stock shortages on the US webshop. Additionally, mounting high-torque wheelbases like the Forte or Invicta with the Table Clamps can cause standard desks to flex violently, forcing you to turn down your force feedback.

Note

The $36.99 Table Clamps, which have held a steady price for 90 days, require a separate Asetek SimSports Bottom Mount to function. Meanwhile, the $39.00 QR Adapter Plate includes a 2.2m coiled USB-C to USB-A cable to handle data connectivity on third-party bases.

Why choose 3rd Party QR Adapter Plate

8.0
Utility Rating
  • It allows you to seamlessly run high-quality Asetek steering wheels on popular third-party wheelbases like Simagic, Moza, or VRS.
  • The solid aluminum construction delivers zero flex, preserving a highly rigid and precise steering feel.

Why choose Asetek SimSports® Table Clamps

7.5
Utility Rating
  • The heavy-duty 5mm steel construction provides exceptional strength that easily handles high wheelbase torque.
  • Integrated silicone pads protect your desk surface from scratches and clamp damage during intense driving sessions.

The Verdict

If you want to break out of the Asetek ecosystem and use their wheels on another wheelbase, the 3rd Party QR Adapter Plate is an incredibly rigid, albeit poorly documented, solution. However, if you are committed to an Asetek wheelbase but lack a dedicated rig, the Asetek SimSports® Table Clamps offer a heavy-duty, protective desk-mounting option despite requiring an extra mounting bracket and an 8mm Allen key to tighten.
