Ok wheel, some quirks

This wheel is pretty good, but I’m not blown away yet. I may need to update the drivers. It seems quirky. Sometimes the PS5 recognizes it and sometimes not. Also, the buttons almost seem to randomly change assignment mid race. The wheel is hard plastic unlike the leather on the Logitech. However, the rim is fat, which I like, so it feels better to turn than I thought it would. I do feel the gearing (or maybe it’s cogs in a rubber belt?). Ironically, one of the reasons I didn’t by the Logitech was because I hate feeling the gears. The pedals on this are very nice. The brakes are nice and stiff. I have this mounted to a GTR cockpit. Because the brakes are so stiff, I don’t know how you would keep the pedals in place without a rig to mount them to.
I haven’t used the wheel a lot because I was waiting for my cockpit. If I resolve the button assignment issue, I’ll provide an update.

Kids love it. Good price. Although I bought two and one came after Christmas. Not good. Not Best Buy but FedEx fault. However would have preferred better customer service from Best Buy.

Bought a little bit ago. Ive since bought an entire rig and shifter, worth the money and all my buddies love coming over and playing it too. I got the one that works on my ps5 and my pcs. I dont have an xbox but if you do make sure you get the right one.

I bought this wheel when I ordered the new Grand Turismo game and I can say that this wheel works wonders! It is very responsive and gives great feedback when you are not driving too well in game.

This steering wheel is a great wheel. This wheel is for a more advanced player that already played with a steering wheel before.

Purchased on sale so it was a no brainer. Definitely changed Gran Turismo for me. It's a very different experience vs. using the hand held controller. No complaints, even if it is an entry level wheel and pedal set.

Excellent wheel and pedals. I am new to racing hardware and wanted something a bit above entry. This nailed it. Coupled with a PS5 and mounted on a NextLevel rig

Great on PC, but on PS is just an awful experience

On PC: Tested with PCars2, Dirt Rally2, AC and Automobilista2. Great experience and easy to set and go on all games but Automobilista2 which doesn’t see the device properly and had to manually rebind all settings (buttons, wheel, pedals and shifter) but it works. On Playstation: …. trash. Ps4 GT Sport, every time your car slips a bit or drift there is a load really bad noise coming out of the wheel, kind of the belt slipping off, and there was no way to detect the shifter :( On PS5: WRC10 oh God, worst FF ever, it felt the thing was tearing apart itselft, I had to stop after 10 minutes before any real damage. So 2/5 I guess. Suggestion: spend a little more and get the T300RS.

Needs to be mounted

Not a weekend you… I did return this item.
First let me state for the record that this is an amazing item. The precision and attention to detail is truly stunning. That being said, this is not for the everyday gamer. It needs to be mounted the pedals need to be attached to something. It’s not as simple as unpackage it and you’re playing right away. The only reason I returned it was due to the mounting issue. I thought it could sit table top. That’s on me.

Its fun to use and showed up in time for christmas. Takes getting used to but when you do, you won't want to use the controller again.
