i have apiga ap2 and g27 and been using it for about 6-7 months now..all i can say is that, i am very satisfied with g27..its a great steering wheel and got no problem at all until now..but i would not recommend u guys to buy apiga..its very heavy, space consuming (tho u can fold it, u rarely will), and the only thing that makes your stand firmly stick to the floor is the rubber piece underneath the leg support - its not glued firm enough to the floor (so u'll need to readjust the stand like every few minutes with ur leg while driving smile.gif ) and the rubber piece will tercabut / worn out after a few months.

Trust me its very heavy..

its heavy, space consuming and the rubber piece (which glued ur stand to the floor) wont last long..if you dont have any problem with these, or can find some other solution, then its a good wheel stand actually..smile.gif

but ap2 got some style compared to the other stand imo..diy the seat rack and you'll get one of the most impressive looking cockpit.. thumbup.gif

bro, any cons?
like bad quality of the 4 rubber pieces at the bottom?

u seem too worried about the rubber piece at the bottom for ap2 stand..hehe..but imo, u asked the wrong person (new buyer) for the problem..if the stand is new, surely the rubber piece looks perfect..after about 7-12 months then only the rubber will tercabut from the leg..

problem is, the only thing that ensure the stand to stick to the floor like glue is the rubber piece, which imo not a good design..other stand might have other mechanism for this purpose, but for ap2, these 4 pcs of thin rubber is the only thing that ensure the stand stick to the floor..only time will tell when the rubber piece will lasts..

theoretically, if you can attach your seat to the stand, then this problem might be solved..the stand will have no tendency to be pushed forward (when you press the pedal with your feet)..less movement of the stand means longer lifetime of the rubber piece..as simple as that..
