Sim Racing Wheel Adapters: Connect Universal 70mm Steering Wheels to Any Base

Metal sim racing wheel adapters on checkered flag - IGNI RACING sim racing solutions

Quick Navigation:


What Are Wheel Adapters?

The Problem: Your wheelbase (Moza, Simagic, Logitech, Thrustmaster, Simucube) has a specific shaft design. Universal steering wheels from MOMO, Sparco, OMP, NRG use the standard 70mm PCD (Pitch Circle Diameter) bolt pattern.

They don't connect directly.

The Solution: Wheel adapters bridge this physical gap—converting your wheelbase's shaft to accept standard 70mm universal steering wheels.


Why 70mm Standard Matters

What is 70mm PCD?

70mm PCD is the universal mounting standard used by real car steering wheels and aftermarket racing wheels.

Measure: 70mm between bolt holes (6-bolt pattern)

Used by:

  • ✅ MOMO (Monaco, Prototipo, Mod.78)
  • ✅ Sparco (R368, L777, P310)
  • ✅ OMP (Velocita, Superquadro, Corsica)
  • ✅ NRG (Quick Release, Deep Dish)
  • ✅ Most aftermarket racing wheels

Benefits of Universal Wheels

Real Materials:

  • Genuine leather or Alcantara
  • Aluminum or carbon fiber construction
  • Premium stitching and finish

Better Feel:

  • Authentic grip diameter (320-350mm typical)
  • Real car wheel thickness
  • Professional racing design

More Options:

  • Deep dish drift wheels
  • Formula-style flat bottom
  • GT3 racing grips
  • Vintage classic styles

The Challenge: These wheels won't mount to your wheelbase without an adapter.

  • Remove wheel and set aside

2. Install Adapter

  • Clean wheelbase shaft with isopropyl alcohol
  • Align adapter with shaft key/slot
  • Hand-tighten mounting hardware first
  • Torque evenly in star pattern (don't overtighten)

3. Mount Your Wheel

  • Align wheel's 70mm bolt pattern with adapter
  • Install all 6 mounting bolts finger-tight
  • Tighten in star pattern for even pressure

Personal preference matters most - test if possible before buying


Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Will MOMO/Sparco wheels work with my wheelbase? A: Yes, with the correct adapter from our collection. Check the compatibility table above or contact us with your wheelbase model for confirmation.

Q: Do adapters affect force feedback quality? A: No. Our CNC-machined aluminum adapters have zero flex and maintain 100% force feedback fidelity. Many users report improved feel due to the better weight distribution of real wheels.

Q: Can I use steering wheel buttons with universal wheels? A: Universal racing wheels (MOMO, Sparco, OMP) don't have built-in electronics. You'll need a separate USB button box for controls. 

Q: Are these adapters safe at high torque? A: Absolutely. Every adapter is tested beyond typical consumer wheelbase torque levels. Our Simucube adapters are rated for 32Nm continuous use—far exceeding even the most powerful consumer systems.

Q: How do I know which adapter I need? A: Check the compatibility table in our collection section, or contact us with your wheelbase model—we'll recommend the exact solution.

Q: What if the adapter doesn't fit? A: Full refund if the adapter doesn't work with your setup as described. We stand behind our compatibility guarantees.
