Gran Turismo DD Pro Wheel Base (8Nm) Wheel Compatibility

in Wheel Bases (and Racing Wheels)

I am looking at purchasing the Grand Turismo DD Pro Wheel Base to upgrade from my Logitech 923. I know there is the GT bundle but I would like to purchase a different fanatec wheel and the V2 pedals. Are any of the wheels Fanatec sells compatible with this base? I was looking specifically at the Clubsport Nascar V2 but it being classified as ClubSport throws me. Any help is appreciated!

    While technically true, it's not always quite that simple.

    @Alex - PS compatibility comes from a chip in the wheelbase itself. So by buying the GT DD Pro (which has PS compatibility), you can attach any Fanatec wheel and you'll be able to play on PS no worries.

    If you ever were to decide you want to play on Xbox, it's a slightly different story. Xbox compatibility comes from a chip in the wheel itself. So you can use any Fanatec *wheelbase* with an Xbox, but you must be sure to use an Xbox-compatible *wheel*.

    depends on what platform you are looking at. If you are looking for a PS4/5 compatible wheel, you need to look out for the PS4/5 ready logo on the item, same goes for xbox. For pc on the other hand, basically any wheel works even if it has ps4 or xbox buttons on it, they will just show up in game as "button 1" instead of square for example.


    tl;dr: For PC, any wheel should work. For xbox or ps4, you will need a wheel compatible with each console.

    Any racing wheel is compatible with PC and PS (PS4, PS5). The PS chip is on Wheelbase, while the Xbox chip is on wheel. So:

    - If you want compatibility with PS you must necessarily use a wheelbase compatible with PS, and any racing wheel.

    - If you want Xbox compatibility you can use any wheelbase, but you must necessarily use an Xbox compatible wheel.

    - Any wheelbase and racing wheel is PC compatible.

    any steering wheel works when connected to a PS compatible base. What you are talking about only applies to the xbox

    Hello, I recently bought the Gran Turismo DD Pro Wheel Base (8 Nm) What a huge difference from my old CSL Elite base and wheel. Anyway, with my R330 V2 wheel and in GT7, I'm no longer able to scroll through setting while in game. With my old base, I could use the funky switch and rotary to adjust things like the fuel map,brake bias, TC, weather radar, etc. Now when doing so, I can only adjust the fuel map and the rotary is now backwards for up/down settings. Pushing it sideways now changes the view too left/right side window view. All my button presets for changing the view, signal lights/headlights no longer work!

    It's super annoying and I'm hoping there might be something I can do to get things back to how it once was??

    If not, would things work properly with this wheel? ClubSport Steering Wheel Formula V2.5 Not that I'm looking to blow another $600+ Cad for it! That's the downside to this Hobby/Addiction, it's stupid crazy expensive working with a 65 cent dollar!

    Thanks all for your time.

    Regards,

    Pierre.
