Upgrade path. Combined with the optional Podium Button Module Endurance, it recreates the '991 GT3 R' wheel design.

Driving style

This official Porsche 991 GT3 Cup replica in suede suits Porsche Cup and GT3 racing in iRacing, Assetto Corsa Competizione, Le Mans Ultimate, rFactor 2 and Gran Turismo 7, with suede grip for long stints. With the Podium Button Module Endurance it becomes a full 991 GT3 R-style endurance wheel.

It fits Porsche fans and GT racers who wear gloves and want the most race-car-like grip. Best for Porsche Cup, GT3 and endurance racing; less suited for formula, rally and drivers who prefer bare hands.

Build quality

Premium build

A full-scale replica based on original Porsche CAD data in brushed, anodized aluminum with premium suede and a metal 3D Porsche badge, part of Fanatec's Podium line. Suede gives excellent grip but wears faster without gloves, and Fanatec excludes glove-related wear from warranty.

Software

The Porsche 911 GT3 Cup rim has no electronics and needs no software. Inputs come from the Fanatec hub or the optional Podium Button Module Endurance, configured through the wheel base in the Fanatec App on Windows PC.

Platform support follows the hub and base: Xbox requires an Xbox hub such as the ClubSport Universal Hub V2 for Xbox, and PlayStation requires a PlayStation-licensed base.

Frequently asked questions

Which hubs does the Porsche 911 GT3 Cup (Suede) rim fit?

Fanatec lists the Podium Hub, ClubSport Universal Hub (all versions) and CSL Universal Hub, with no drilling. A hub is required and sold separately.

How do I turn it into a 991 GT3 R wheel?

Fanatec says pairing it with the optional Podium Button Module Endurance recreates the 991 GT3 R design used on the complete Podium Steering Wheel Porsche 911 GT3 R.

Is it an accurate replica?

Fanatec describes it as an official, full-scale replica of the Porsche 991 GT3 Cup rim based on original CAD data, with a 32 cm diameter and a metal 3D Porsche badge.

Do I need gloves with the suede version?

Fanatec highly recommends gloves due to the nature of suede. Overtake.gg users report ruining suede rims by driving bare-handed, while Fanatec notes gloves themselves can add wear that warranty does not cover.

Is suede wear covered by warranty?

Fanatec states extra wear on rim materials and stitching caused by gloves is not covered under warranty. Clean with a microfiber cloth and lukewarm water, without chemicals.

Suede or Leather version?

Both are identical 32 cm, 825 g Porsche replicas. Suede offers more grip but needs gloves and care; the Leather version is easier to live with bare-handed.

Is it worth the Podium price?

It costs $199.99 at Fanatec US, about $20 more than most ClubSport rims, for an officially licensed Porsche replica with a metal badge and an upgrade path to the 991 GT3 R design.

Can I add buttons and a display?

Yes. Pair it with the Podium Button Module Endurance (sold separately). Without it, inputs come from your hub.
