That KS wheel is absolutely the perfect entry-level GT racing rim I've ever seen. I have been doing tons of research of what's all available and pricing out what I want for my upgraded rig setup, and was mostly on board with the Moza ecosystem, but that KS wheel just sealed the deal. I wasn't sure I could afford the GS V2 but wanted something along that line, and was leaning towards the Fanatec Mclaren GT3 wheel and ecosystem because of it. Now that's been settled completely. Incredible effort from Moza.

Correct. We’ve since got it working. The instructions that shipped with the wheel were incorrect.

Was just looking through their store and was suprised to see a new wheel so came here to see what was going on, always great reviews for new tech.

Great review, as always! Just a quick note on one thing you said: Carbon Fibre Reinforced Polymer (CFRP) is literally the designation of any part made out of carbon fibre. You have a polymer (the resin that acts like the matrix) reinforced with carbon fibre strands. So, when you see a "real" carbon fibre piece, it is a CFRP piece. Thanks!

This KS wheel is exactly what I was hoping for. I’m still pretty new to sim racing and just couldn’t justify the price of the other two GT wheels.

I’ve been watching your videos over the last couple days before purchasing a rig… and must I say thank you!Your videos are so amazingly helpful, you don’t miss a single detail. You are a amazing KZreadr and I wish all channels were this quality. Stay awesome man

Fair play to Moza I got the R5 Bundle 4/5 Months ago to replace a G920, didn't use the pedals as already had TCLMs. Everything from the ordering, packaging, quality of product, software has all been top notch. The Fanatec stuff was constantly on back order so I went Moza as a 2nd choice but glad I did now. I'm just using a desk mount so going beyond 5NM would probably destroy the desk but if I ever get a proper rig and wanted more strength would defo stick with Moza.

Incredible value. Especially the wheel is something I have been expecting from Fanatec for a while.

Ordered the KS! I have been waiting for this budget wheel ever since getting my R9 / CS / SRP set 12 months ago. It's great when companies listen to thier customer base and deliver at such a high level. Especially for the cost!

Love to see the Micro Center support. I'm lucky enough to have one near me and their selection and prices are really awesome, and the people are great too. There's nowhere else to really go to see computer hardware, let alone sim hardware, in person. I experienced direct drive for the first time when I was there last weekend and it has me itching to upgrade. The R12 fits the bill really well, so this is tempting for when I upgrade. If Fanatec come out with something in this range though I'll probably go for that since I could then keep my Formula 2.5 wheel with the paddle module that I love. I don't want to settle for 8nm with the CSL DD but the Podium bases are just way too expensive for me. You're right, there's a huge hole in their ecosystem that they should really fill.

"Your move, Fanatec." Says everyone, for the last three years. It's been so long since Fanatec released something new. Waited 2 years for them to release a dashed wheel. I eventually got tired of waiting and got the FSR Wheel when the Moza hub and adapter was released. Love it. Quick release was game changing attached to my DD2, and it's difficult to go back. Been looking at getting another Moza wheel like this one so I don't have to take off the Podium hub and move my pedals and chair around switching to my Fanatec Formula rim. Moza's just been hitting it out of the park with every release. Only thing that's missing is console support. Would also love to see them add Simhub compatibility with their dashes.

Glad I have held out an extra couple of weeks. Was set on the Asetek Forte but not needing an extra mount this has saved me over £600. Upgrading from a Clubsport 2.5 and McLaren V2 wheel onto my GT Omega Prime. Im sticking with the Fanatec V3's as I just love the feel of them so hoping they make a good pairing. Hoping to get many good years out of this. I always value your opinions Will, keep up the good work .

I just got the Asetek La Prima base, pedals, and Forte wheel TK edition from Microcenter gor $799. I am in sun racing heaven!

I had some issues getting into the button color change mode during my testing as well and discovered that you don't press the joystick buttons but you toggle each of them inward towards the center of the wheel, at the same time, and then do it again to lock in your choices. I have been loving the wheel, I race GT3/GT4 cars mainly and feel the wheel size and button layout to be pretty much perfect. Liking it more than my GS wheel inany ways.

Great review - as always! I hope the version they sell will have the bolt on QR wheel side piece like the R9. No bolts means no elongation possible. I need my base behind the monitor.

That wheel looks amazing

Sold my GS V1 and ordered a KS, the shape and handle material is more appealing to me. I did love my GS

What I've come to realize with configuring these DD wheel bases for drifting it's all about balancing the FFB power with the dampener settings. You want to have a responsive wheel and that can be achieved by lower FFB Gain but then you have to lower the dampener so the wheel can start rotating as soon as it can. Or you could go high FFB Gain setting but then you have to put a lot of dampening to compensate for the wheel rotating to quickly and being too eratic. Finding the balance is the key and it can depend from person to person some people like it to be low intensity so they can control the drift easier some like it higher. This also depends what wheel rim you're running how wide it is, how heavy etc ... inertia and all that.

Hey Will, just wanted to say I like that the sponsor of the video is a store rather than a sim-racing company, improves the reliability and independency for the reviews, hope to see more companies do this, so we can keep seeing these great reviews without you being financially dependent on any competitor in the market Moza wheels look absolutely fantastic, Fanatec and Asetek should take notes on the how to make great looking formula wheels. If I was Asetek I'd stop whatever work I'm doing on rigs right now and get the La Prima bundles out to the reviewers, and speed up a process to release more wheels. If I was Fanatec I'd fire whoever is responsible for the QR2 delay and get a 12-15nm base at a good price out asap. Moza is taking all the glory right now.

I do hope this puts some pressure on fanatec to release a base in between the 8nm cslDD and tthe DD1 ( maybe with the same boost pack approach as the DD with options for, let's say, 10nm or 15nm)

I'd love a sided mount option like the CSL DD has as it gives a bit of room for a sliding keyboard. But it looks like a great wheelbase with good mid-entry level wheel options.

Congrats on Microcenter deal. They are top notch! They are not the cheapest in town but we should reward them for actually stocking multiple sim gear brands on their shelves and have a simulator set up to try out the gear! If you live near one, you are doing yourself a disservice not trying them. They stock all the best and gear! GSI, Simucube, Moza, Aestek, etc etc. But for those that keep waiting for Fanatec to release a ~12-5nm DD base, just get the DD1, it is silly how so many people think there needs to be 6 different power level bases available. Buy once, cry once, go for the largest peak/ sustained NMs you can afford because of the extra clipping headroom and better future proof your purchase

I’m actually loving this back and forth with these two companies I hope Fanatec do make a move that gamers will like, it helps us customers. If Moza get Console support PS5 for me then I might actually consider them over Fanatec tbh.

While the stuff out there looks awesome, I really don't need an $800 carbon rim for my sim rig.

The wheel side to side wiggle is a item to item variance from what I can tell. My brother and I both bought the original R9 with GS wheel, his does not have the wiggle but mine does. I do not notice during racing. I suspect it has something to do with how the milling on either the base shaft connection point, or parts of the quick disconnect itself. I have yet to actually measure to find out, but I suspect it is a variance that could be accounted for by a part getting too hot during milling and expanding.

Only what made me a bit hesitant is that there is currently only the formula wheel available and I do love to drive the 90s dtm and stock cars as well as rally which just doesn't work with the la prima Formula wheel.

Habe alles von Fanataec Podiumhub mit Buttonplate, Mc Laren gt3 v2 mit Simshifters Z Hybrid Paddels umgebaut.

Hab auch das Formula 2.5version aber die Felge ist mir einfach zu klein auf Dauer. Bei TCR oder Strassenautos das BMW M3 Gt2 . Jeder hat so seine Vorlieben wegen dem FFB zu viel ist nicht immer gut man muss die Balance einfach finden. Ich werde weiter bei Fanatec bleiben da ich damit bis jetzt nur gutes sagen kann. Und diese ist schon seit Anfang 2022 Dauerhaft im Einsatz. Ich weiss ich komme aus Europa da ist es mit Fanatec etwas einfacher als in der USA, Kanada oder China. Beste GRüsse gehn raus in die Welt.

The wheelbase quick release is a missed opportunity again. I understand they wanted to make all the older wheels compatible but they are seriously lacking from the competition and that plastic qr have lot of flex and crackles and will not pass the test of time. It looks like they're stuck 10 years behind in term of innovation and build quality. The T818 looks like a toy compared to Moza, and for the price point, it's ridiculously expensive for what you get. And I'm not talking about the ugly design of the base itself. I was in the Thrustmaster ecosystem with the T300 before I switched to Moza... and it is night and day! Even if you are in the TM ecosystem, I strongly suggest you to sell everything and switch sooner than later. They will probably go bankrupt soon if they don't up their game quickly. Those affordable premium quality grade DD bases are becoming the norm.

I had the same problem pushing the joysticks to go into the buttons color mod and it turns out I had to push both joysticks inwards (left to the right and right to the left)

Yep. The instruction manual I was sent was incorrect. Just figured it out about an hour ago.

Just ordered mine on their site, up to 20 days processing time before shipping, my god, it's killing me.

I want to upgrade my T300 soon, I already got the Fanatec CSL Elite V2 Pedals so I dont know if I should go for a Moza base/wheel or stick to Fanantec but this KS wheel + the R9 is a very tempting set.

can't you use the CSL elite v2 pedals standalone? nothing stopping you from just using those with the moza base/wheel if that's the case. Don't need to box yourself in to using just 1 brand if you're on PC anyways

Moza all the way!

Looks awesome and is a nice offering from Moza. The only part I don't like is the plastic body. But this form of plastic is super rigid I guess. Not sure if that makes it better.

I had pretty much settled on a combo of Asatek products, but found myself wondering if I could get the same or more for the same or less money, as I have a rather limited racing budget. I know there will be some detractors, because of the iRacers I follow and support, but I'm totally sold on the Moza wheels and bases. In a couple weeks, I plan to get an R12 and a GS V2P, probably a CM dash also. I'm considering adding an RS wheel also but that's pushing things a little. We'll see. Anyhow, just wanted to let you know where I stand and thank you for all the detailed information. It very much helped me come to what I think is a good decision for a rig I can use for years to come. Thank you.

At Fanatec's pace they might release a 12 NM wheelbase 10 years from now 😂

Thrustmaster said they would release 3 wheels for the new t818 this q2 but still nothing, and pedals haven't even been mentioned

You push both joysticks inwards twords each other to enter programming mode, then point both outwards away from each other to exit programming mode. You just pushed them down like xbox joysticks. I only noticed this because I did the same thing when I first got mine.
