Fanatec ClubSport Steering Wheel GT3
318 mm rubber-grip GT3 rim with a cluster bracket on the ClubSport Universal Hub V2
Description
The Fanatec ClubSport Steering Wheel GT3 bundles the ClubSport Wheel Rim GT3 with the ClubSport Universal Hub V2. Fanatec created the rim to offer the shape of the GT3 Endurance rim without needing the Podium Button Module Endurance, giving the Universal Hub's button clusters a GT3-style home.
Rim. The 318 mm rim is CNC-machined from black anodized aluminum with overmolded rubber grips (50 Shore A) similar to the Podium BMW M4 GT3. A reinforcement bracket sits between hub and rim to mount the button clusters rigidly in ergonomic positions, and the FunkySwitch can go on the left or right. Weight including bracket: 700 g. Ten printable sticker sheets and a squeegee are included for custom faceplates.
ClubSport Universal Hub V2. Preinstalled ClubSport Magnetic Paddle Module (3 mm aluminum plates, CNC cage, neodymium magnets), 16 integrated hub buttons, four 3-button clusters, a 7-way FunkySwitch, Tuning Menu button and a three-digit LED display. The hub is firmware-updatable, accepts 6 x 70 mm and 3 x 50 mm bolt-pattern rims and has DataPort-C for the Podium Button Module Endurance. Note: the Podium Advanced Paddle Module cannot be used while the cluster bracket is installed. QR2 Wheel-Side included, packaged separately.
Compatibility. Requires a Fanatec wheel base (not included): Podium DD, Podium DD1/DD2, ClubSport DD/DD+, ClubSport V2/V2.5, CSL Elite bases, CSL DD and Gran Turismo DD Pro. Works on Windows PC and on PlayStation with a PlayStation-licensed base. Not compatible with Xbox; Fanatec sells a ClubSport GT3 for Xbox.
Features & highlights
Driving style
The ClubSport GT3 is a 318 mm GT3-style rim with overmoulded 50 Shore A rubber grips, CNC-machined black anodised aluminium and a set of blank sticker sheets so you can lay out the buttons like a real GT3 cockpit. It is the closest thing to a customer-racing wheel short of the Podium line: LED display unit, FunkySwitch, 16 hub buttons and crisp magnetic paddles for Assetto Corsa Competizione, iRacing and GT Challenge events. Best for GT3 and GT racing; less suited for rally, drifting and formula cars that expect different rim shapes.
Build quality
The 318 mm rim is CNC-machined, black anodised aluminium with overmoulded rubber grips at 50 Shore A, weighing 700 g with its bracket, and it includes blank sticker sheets for custom button graphics. It mounts to the aluminium ClubSport Universal Hub V2, firmware-updatable and compatible with third-party bolt-pattern rims, carrying a magnetic paddle module with a CNC-machined aluminium cage and 3 mm anodised plates. Metal dominates the structure; the removable button clusters, FunkySwitch and display housing are polymer.
Software
The GT3 has no driver of its own: firmware, Tuning Menu and force feedback settings run through the Fanatec wheel base it mounts to, configured in the Fanatec App for Windows PC, which also updates the base and the firmware-updatable hub. On console, compatibility follows the base: pair it with a PlayStation-licensed base for PS4 and PS5 button layouts, while PC works with any Fanatec base; it is not Xbox-licensed, so Xbox requires one of the Xbox wheels instead. The LED display unit shows telemetry such as gear and speed in supported games. FanaLab programs LED behaviour, and SimHub can drive displays with custom dashboards.
