As sim racing continues to gain popularity, more peripherals are needed to improve the driving experience and satisfy user needs. While some will shell out for full cockpits, others either just don’t have the money or space to dedicate to a full rig. Thankfully, Next Level Racing (NLR) has thought of that with the release of the Wheel Stand 2.0, and we’ll be checking it out today in this review.
Combining the durability of the Wheel Stand DD with the portability of the original Wheel Stand, the latest iteration from NLR may be exactly what any sim racer is looking for. It’s a stable stand that makes you feel like you are behind the wheel of your favorite car while also keeping the clutter to a minimum.
Putting together the NLR Wheel Stand 2.0 is simple enough. The instructions are clear and everything is laid out for you. The positioning of the pedal and shifter mounts are completely up to you. You may find yourself doing a bit of trial and error to get the best positions, so just be prepared to spend a little extra time making everything right.
The Wheel Stand 2.0 sits at a max height just over 31 inches when fully extended. The Pedal mount can be tilted up to 15 degrees for the best position. For the shifter mount, it sits on the extension risers of the wheel deck, allowing it to be as high or low as you’d like, depending on the height of the wheel deck, obviously.
It looks daunting, but assembly isn’t difficult at all.
I think the best part of putting the stand together is that, unlike other offerings, the kit includes M6 bolts and washers. Rather than having to find or buy your own, NLR gives you everything you need to mount your wheel, shifters, and pedals to the Wheel Stand 2.0 for the most secure setup.
