Great value for a Sturdy Sim Racing Stand
TL;DR: This wheel stand is great value and has made sim racing much more enjoyable due to its sturdy construction, but it could come with better assembly instructions and may require adjustments to mount your wheel base and/or pedals.Wheel/pedals used with this stand:Fanatec CSW 2.5 wheel baseCSL Elite pedals w/load cell kitDetails below:I purchased this wheel stand/frame for my Fanatec CSW 2.5 wheel base that had previously been mounted on my desk with the Fanatec desk clamp.The desk clamp was ok, but I needed something sturdier, since I felt like I was shaking the desk apart whenever I turned into a corner. The lack of rigidity with my desk setup also prevented me from being more precise with my steering input. Aside from shaky wheel base setup, my pedals (CSL Elite with the load cell kit) were being pushed around.After seeing a couple people in reddit mention the GT Omega Stand, I took a look and was at first a little apprehensive. But after reading the reviews and considering the price, I felt it was worth a shot.Am I glad I decided to purchase the GT Omega! For the price, I couldn’t ask for a sturdier wheel frame that just works. I though it would be flimsy, but it has turned out to be very solid and has made it possible for me to be a lot more precise and confident when racing. In the short time I’ve had this stand, I’ve had a lot more fun sim racing.With all that being said, assembly wasn’t what I would consider plug and play. The one thing that stood out is the lack of instructions as to what bolts were supposed to be used for pedal mounting, since there are multiple sizes included. I was able to eventually figure something out though.I also had to adjust my pedals (CSL Elite) so that the mount holes lined up with the pedal base. For Fanatec CSW 2.5 owners you’ll want to leave the wedge/angled adapter piece on the base if you’re adjusting the steering height at all.I think I spent a little over two hours assembling/setting up the stand (a good chunk of that on adjusting the pedal layout to get the mounting holes aligned), but I think it was well worth it. Now that it is setup, I don’t see myself having to revisit the assembly again unless I get a new wheel or pedal setup.Based on my experience with the GT Omega wheel stand, I’d recommend to anyone looking for a reasonably priced, solid wheel stand to seriously consider it. I may even buy the extension for the racing seat.

Good, solid, sturdy wheel stand
Great quality wheel stand that fits my needs well. Using with a Logitech G29 wheel and pedal set. The stand is quite well-made and heavy. Very little twisting under racing.Assembly was quick and easy. The docs were simple to follow. I find the adjustability to be good and the inclusion of 2 different shifter attachments a plus.It is a heavy stand and I decided to add locking casters which are working well. These are the ones I'm using: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07597TSHK?psc=1&ref=ppx_yo2_dt_b_product_detailsThe one negative I have found is that if you change the angle of the wheel stand, the angle of the wheel also changes. There is no way to keep the wheel level. But it isn't an issue for me as I have found the perfect adjustment with the wheel stand portion level.

Excellent Quality
I don't write reviews very often but thought I would confirm a few things about this Sim Racing platform. It is well built, very adjustable for the wheel and pedal setups and folds down to store easily away. It arrived partially assembled and the remaining setup was straightforward. Recommended for new sim racers looking for a sturdy platform to setup their rig at a very affordable price.

Great stand for the price, quality built product.
Had this about a month, was using a Rigid flip table at first but was too unstable for my likings. The stand is pretty slick adjustments work well . I have a thrustmaster f150 with upgraded tp3a pro pedals and added the rimcotech hard mount plate to the wheel. I'm a big man aprox. 6'4" 300#s the stand adjusts pretty good to fit me in my recliner. I wish I had room to add one of their seats to the set up but maybe later down the road. Stand is pretty stable, small amount of movement but not really noticeable while playing. It would be more comfortable if it were2" to 4" wider but I'm guessing smaller people are fine with it. It works just would be nicer a bit wider for my legs. My opinion is that for $120 this is a pretty sweet stand, saw cheaper priced similar stands but couldn't tell if smaller, thinner tubing was used and this company seems to have a quality based reputation, $$ well spent.

Incredibly sturdy.
This thing is awesome. I had a homemade stand for the longest time. This stand is very heavy, which means it doesn't move side to side while driving. 5/5 stars. The only issue was the instructions weren't very clear. But a quick Google search and you can find plenty of videos to help assemble. Although, it was 90% assembled right out of the box. I would absolutely recommend this to friends/fellow racers. Works great with my gaming chair.

Excellent value - very heavy duty and well made.
Great stand! Very well made, extremely stable. My 12-year-old son put it together with no help from me. Using with a thrustmaster T-150. Suggest adding a thin board on both sides of the mounting deck, which will sandwich between the T-150 mounting clamp and metal deck underside for a thicker edge (note there is a center reinforcement on the underside, hence having a board on either side of it). The T-150 clamp can loosen after a few sessions even when you really tighten it down (as it’s only clamping to one piece of heavy gauge sheet metal). The T-150 doesn’t have a hard mount screw plate to mount to the GT Omega deck (which has predrilled mounting holes) - which would really be the ideal solution. I may pop for one of the aftermarket retrofit plates to take better advantage of the stands versatility and stability.

Stable and sturdy platform
Easy setup. Took about 15-20 minutes max from opening the box to setting up the stand and installing the racing wheel and pedals. All screws and tools were provided for an easy set up. Storage is simple - remove the 2 screws on each side of the lower legs and it folds away. Great product, only wish they provided some sort of cable management. I ended up buying cable clips with an adhesive backing to route the cables from the wheel and pedals away from the center of the stand.

Excellent Stand
The stand is solid and well built. It goes together quickly. The Thrustmaster T-LCM pedals mount on the pedal base perfectly and the pre-drilled wheel plate fits the Thrustmaster wheel base.The stand is very adjustable for height and angle. The one issue I had was when tried an angle lower than the most upright, I found that the weight of the wheel and servo base moved the centre of balance towards the rear of the stand, and I found the front of the stand lifting off the floor slightly. At the upright angle, I have had no issues.Overall, having switched from a Wheel Stand Pro to the GT Omega, I much prefer the GT Omega. No post between your legs with the GT Omega as opposed to the Wheel Stand Pro, and when I started to use the Thrustmaster T-LCM pedals, the Wheel Stand Pro only uses a single metal bar under the frame held by a single screw to secure the pedals. I found this woefully inadequate and the pedals were shifting slightly. The GT Omega allows for the pedals to bolt down securely. It is a much better system.

Stabil und leicht aufzubauen
Stabil und leicht aufzubauen. TS150 passt drauf, das Lenkrad allerdings ohne die Bohrungen zu nutzen. Ist mit der beim Lenkrad mitgelieferten Halterug trotzdem stabil. Kann man auch zusammenklappen und wegstellen. Bin zufrieden.

Rigide et très stable !
Très bonne qualité de fabrication pour ce support métallique, il est lourd et donc très stable. Associé à un volant avec retour de force, il transforme complètement l’expérience des jeux automobiles !Le prix est un peu plus élevé que d’autres supports mais c’est justifié par la qualité de fabrication et les possibilités de réglage en hauteur et profondeur.Je recommande pour ceux qui cherchent un support stable et bien rigide.

GT steering wheel stand - GREAT PRODUCT and works perfect!
I am extremely pleased with this product.I bought this stand for my thrustmaster 458 spider and it works perfectly. I use it on my Xbox and it works great on the couch and can adjust fairly easily.One issue with my wheel I had to put a block of wood underneath due to my wheel not being able to screw into the frame but it was not hard to make it work perfectly.The stand itself is sturdy and does not wobble at all. The quality was good as well with no chips or damage. It comes with a bag of screws and bolts that will work with most wheels it also comes with a shifter stand that attaches to the main frame. I did not install it as I dont use the stick shifter. Assembly was not difficult for me with fairly easy to read instructions.Overall for any gamer looking for a stand for their racing wheel I highly recommend this product and believe anyone would be pleased.

Convenient parfaitement
Très satisfait, c’est vraiment plus pratique que d’avoir à monter et démonter tout mon setup chaque soir je peux le glisser en dessous de mon bureau.
