Know before you buy
No, the Alpha GTS kit consists of the steering wheel component only. You will need to own or purchase a compatible Simagic Alpha direct-drive wheelbase separately to use this system.
The premium leather is designed for high-performance sim racing and offers excellent grip and comfort. While it is durable, we recommend using racing gloves to maintain the material's texture and prevent wear from natural skin oils over time.
The optional bottom mounting bracket provides additional flexibility for how you attach your wheelbase to your rig. It is particularly useful if your cockpit setup does not support standard side-mounting configurations.
Direct-drive technology connects the steering wheel directly to the motor shaft, eliminating the lag or gear-driven resistance found in entry-level wheels. This results in immediate, precise force feedback that allows you to feel subtle track details and tire grip levels in real-time.
The Simagic Alpha GTS is specifically engineered for the Simagic Alpha direct-drive ecosystem. It is designed to integrate seamlessly with their proprietary quick-release and electronic communication protocols, so it is not intended for use with other brands.
