Wheel and pedal stand recommendations please PS and PC

[Ben Cole]

Got a couple of racing wheel and pedal kits.

Wondering if anybody has any recommendations for a stand. Seen "Diwangus" on the rainforest, they look reasonable and pretty universal.

Any tips? A search didn't throw up anything recent.

I think there are a few important questions. What wheel and pedals are you primarily using? What are you looking to achieve as this is a potentially huge rabbit hole? you looking to setup a dedicated simrig or just something to mount your setup on that will come out occasionally? Does it have to be just a wheel/pedal stand or are you interested in a proper rig? Whats your budget? whats your space constraints?

Looking at that "Diwangus" setup personally I wouldnt even entertain it. Its going to be a wobbly mess. If you are confined when it comes to space restraints. Going by your limited info given I'd probably look at the GT Omega Apex as a bare minimum. My mate runs one and I've spent put a fair few laps on that setup, and its surprisingly rigid and functional. He runs a Thrustmaster TS-XW/T-LCM on it and its actually decent, wouldnt want to put a stronger wheel/DD wheel on it but for that setup its absolutely functional.

As I say though, give us a bit more information and we'll be able to advise you better.

Thanks for your input.

I've actually ordered the one I was looking at. Spent a while searching the Web and trying to identify genuine rainforest reviews and it seemed worth the money.

I have Thrustmaster T248 and an older Logitech setup, think it's the GT Driving Force.

We were just looking for a cost effective way to avoid having to use non adjustable tables and the pedals sliding about. Not a full sim racing rig yet, though I can see that my son agrees with me that a decent wheel and pedals transforms driving games (T248 recently acquired for his PS5) so who knows where it will lead

If anyone's interested, it arrived today and I'm really pleased with it

Pretty stable and once your feet are on there it's nicely damped with little flex or wobble.

Plenty of adjustment and obviously a vast improvement on a loose IKEA coffee table that weighed 5 grams.

For our purposes, ideal.
