Thrustmaster is thrilled to unveil its new add-on wheel rim: EVO Racing 32R Leather.

Featuring a round rim (12.6 inches / 32 cm in diameter), this wheel is perfect for all rally racing fans keen to drive on the edge — and for all versatile drivers looking for top-tier performance in all racing disciplines.

EVO Racing 32R Leather features paddle shifters with magnetic sensors, for precise activation. The paddle shifters are long and curved, for optimal accessibility that lets you stay firmly in control, throughout even the most intense moments in your races. All essential controls are right at your fingertips: 25 action buttons in total, including 4 rotary encoders and an ergonomic D-pad, plus 7 LEDs to display RPM and racing information.

The brushed-aluminum central faceplate gives EVO Racing 32R Leather excellent rigidity while maintaining its lightweight construction. The wheel rim’s leather wrapping, embellished with yellow kryptonite stitching, ensures comfortable handling and adds a modern, distinctive touch to its look. It’s a premium design that combines performance, comfort and eye-catching aesthetics.

EVO Racing 32R Leather is compatible with all existing and future Thrustmaster Force Feedback racing wheel bases — and its weight (just 2.9 lb / 1,300 g) lets you really get the most out of every base’s power.

With this new add-on wheel rim, Thrustmaster is proud to usher in the EVO Racing range with its own ecosystem centered on its detachable hub, which can be combined with wheel rims and paddle shifters of different shapes and sizes (available at a later date). You’ll want to take full advantage of this scalable and customizable solution to suit all racing styles.
