Frequently asked questions
Do aim rings actually work?
They change how the stick feels, not how good your aim is. The ring adds resistance around the base of the stick, so at high sensitivity small corrections overshoot less. Think of it as more control, not extra aim.
Are aim rings worth it?
If your aim often runs past the target, yes. You get 6 rings in 3 hardnesses (Easy, Soft and Hard) for €8.95, which makes them one of the cheapest upgrades for your controller, and you can find out which hardness suits you.
Do they fit the Xbox Elite Series 2?
Yes. They fit the Elite Series 2, the Xbox Series X|S controller and every Xbox One controller.
Do precision rings fix Xbox controller drift?
No. Drift is caused by wear inside the controller, and no ring repairs that. With very mild drift, the resistance can make the stick feel calmer around the centre, but it is not a fix. Our article on what causes stick drift explains what actually helps.
Which resistance level should I start with?
Easy. If your aim still runs past the target, go up to Soft, which is where most players end up. Save Hard for sniping at high sensitivity.

Do precision rings affect aim assist?
No. Aim assist is built into the game, not the controller. The ring only adds physical resistance and does not change the input the stick sends, so aim assist works exactly as before.
Do they make the stick taller?
No. The ring sits around the base of the stick and adds resistance only. For extra height, look at the Xbox FPS Extenders.
Do the rings wear out?
With heavy use they slowly soften over time. You get two rings of each hardness, so you always have a spare for the hardness you use.
Can precision rings damage the thumbstick?
No. The ring is made of soft foam that compresses as you push the stick, so it does not damage the stick or the controller in normal use. You slide it on and off by hand.
