Wheel Plate Pivot Reinforcement for Playseat Challenge X – Logitech G Edition
We find the Playseat Challenge X – Logitech G Edition is a great gaming chair but some of our customers find this pivot can be loose, affecting the fidelity of the steering. So we took on the task of designing and making reinforcement without compromising ease of use.
It took us a bit of time to come up with something that was easy to use and worked well, but we did it. The reinforcement allows you to use your Playseat Challenge X – Logitech G Edition exactly as before. As you close the Wheel Plate down into the driving position, the shape of the reinforcement forces the inner and outer rings together, helping to strengthen the pivot and reduce unwanted movement.
Why might I need this?
If you find an up and down movement of the wheel is affecting the accuracy of your driving, have a look to see where the movement is coming from. Check the Pivot (see pictures) for play or slight looseness while driving – or lift the wheel up and down from outside the rig to see.
What does it improve?
The reinforcement reduces the vertical free movement at the pivot, so it is difficult or impossible to detect.
Can I still rotate the wheel frame to get into the seat?
Yes – the adjustable design is tight when the seat is ready for use, but automatically frees up as the pivot is rotated for access.
We uploaded a Gen1 WPPR Instillation Guide video a while ago, for the standard Challenge, but it’s very similar in both respects.

I just received my product today and it is absolutely fantastic! It made a HUGE difference to my steering and feels a lot more solid. I honestly didn’t think the part would improve the chair as much as it did because the seat is only a few weeks old, so thank you so much!
