Sim Racing Steering Wheel Wall MountvsSimNet Haptic Motor Mounting Bracket

The Bottom Line

The Asetek Sim Racing Steering Wheel Wall Mount is a premium, dedicated display solution for organizing your high-end wheel collection, while the Protosimtech SimNet Haptic Motor Mounting Bracket is a budget-friendly, utility-focused DIY bracket designed to add tactile feedback to your pedal set. They target completely different needs in your rig setup, ranging from clean aesthetic storage to raw tactile immersion.

Watch out

The Protosimtech SimNet Haptic Motor Mounting Bracket suffers from notable manufacturing tolerances, often requiring you to manually widen the bracket with pliers to fit your pedals. Furthermore, the included low-quality screws cross-thread easily, and overtightening can block your pedal sides from clipping back on.

Note

Because the official Asetek Sim Racing Steering Wheel Wall Mount is made of laser-cut steel, it can scratch your wheel's metal quick release mechanism over time. While plastic alternatives exist, cheap 3D-printed mounts risk snapping under the weight of heavy steering wheels.
