Fanatec ClubSport Steering Wheel R300 V2 for Xbox
300 mm Podium-grade leather rim with gold accents on the ClubSport Universal Hub V2 for Xbox
Description
The Fanatec ClubSport Steering Wheel R300 V2 for Xbox bundles the Podium Wheel Rim R300 with the ClubSport Universal Hub V2 for Xbox. The 300 mm rim is made of brushed, anodized aluminum, covered in premium smooth leather with gold stitching, and comes with gold anodized aluminum bolts. The rim alone weighs 775 g.
Xbox compatibility. The hub's Microsoft chip makes any compatible Fanatec base, plus connected pedals, shifters and handbrakes, work on Xbox One and Xbox Series X|S. On PC and other platforms the base keeps its normal specifications. Some features may not be supported on Xbox and depend on game support for the Fanatec SDK.
Who it suits. Fanatec calls 300 mm a good all-rounder for many vehicle types.
Paddles and controls. Preinstalled ClubSport Magnetic Paddle Module (3 mm aluminum plates, CNC aluminum cage, neodymium magnets) with small and large plates and spacers; no clutch paddles out of the box (upgradable to the Podium Advanced Paddle Module). 16 integrated buttons on the hub, four adjustable and detachable 3-button clusters, a 7-way FunkySwitch, a Tuning Menu button and a three-digit LED display mountable upright or flat.
Modularity. Accepts all Fanatec rims and third-party rims with 6 x 70 mm or 3 x 50 mm bolt patterns. The Podium Button Module Endurance (sold separately) fits this rim and hub, though Fanatec notes tight clearance with the smaller R300.
Compatibility. Requires a Fanatec wheel base (not included): Podium DD1/DD2, ClubSport V2/V2.5, CSL Elite bases, CSL DD and Gran Turismo DD Pro. QR2 Wheel-Side included, packaged separately.
Features & highlights
Driving style
The R300 V2 for Xbox is a 300 mm round aluminium rim in premium smooth leather with gold stitching, the size most drivers settle on as their all-rounder. It is small enough to stay quick in GT and touring cars, round enough for rally stages and pit-lane manoeuvres, and the Universal Hub supplies 16 buttons, a FunkySwitch and magnetic paddles for Forza Motorsport, Assetto Corsa Competizione and iRacing. Best for GT, touring and mixed-class all-rounders on Xbox or PC; less suited for dedicated formula racing that wants a compact D-shape and for vintage cars that want a 350 mm wheel.
Build quality
The rim is aluminium at 300 mm, wrapped in premium smooth leather with gold stitching and finished with anodised aluminium gold bolts, weighing 775 g. It mounts to the ClubSport Universal Hub V2 for Xbox, an aluminium body carrying the Xbox security chip, firmware-updatable and open to any third-party 70 mm or 50 mm bolt-pattern rim. The magnetic paddle module uses a CNC-machined aluminium cage with 3 mm anodised plates; polymer is confined to the button clusters and FunkySwitch.
Software
The R300 V2 for Xbox 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 Universal Hub electronics. The Xbox license lives in the wheel, so it is plug-and-play on Xbox Series X|S and Xbox One with any compatible Fanatec base, and it also works on PS4 and PS5 when paired with a PlayStation-licensed base; PC works with every Fanatec base. Buttons and encoders reach games through the Fanatec SDK, and SimHub can push custom telemetry to compatible displays.
