The Bottom Line

We are looking at two entirely different upgrade paths here: one integrates Asetek wheels into external ecosystems, while the other rigidly mounts Fanatec wheelbases directly to aluminum profile rigs. Your choice depends entirely on whether you are adapting a steering wheel or securing a heavy direct drive wheelbase.

Note

Asetek's documentation and marketing for this adapter can be highly confusing, leaving users to figure out the required parts on their own. Additionally, US buyers often face stock shortages on the local webshop, forcing expensive global shipping and import tariffs.

Watch out

Installing the TR ONE V2 can be a tedious and fiddly process when trying to align the side mounts perfectly symmetrically. Furthermore, the included T-nuts can have a slightly loose fit in the profile channels, which complicates assembly.

Why choose 3rd Party QR Adapter Plate

8.0
Performance
  • Enables seamless integration of Asetek steering wheels with third-party wheelbases like Simagic, Moza, and VRS.
  • Solid aluminum build quality with zero flex ensures a highly rigid and precise steering feel.

Why choose TR ONE V2 Base Kit and Direct Mount for Fanatec Direct Drive Wheelbases

8.5
Performance
  • Delivers exceptional rigidity and rock-solid stability with zero flex under high-torque loads.
  • Provides excellent knee clearance and extra space under the wheelbase compared to traditional wheel decks.

The Verdict

If you want to run an Asetek wheel on a non-Asetek wheelbase, the 3rd Party QR Adapter Plate is a highly rigid, zero-flex solution despite its confusing documentation. For Fanatec owners on aluminum profile rigs, the TR ONE V2 Base Kit offers unmatched stability and knee clearance, making it the definitive mounting upgrade.
