Customers are saying

Customers appreciate the T598 Direct Axial Drive Force Feedback Racing Wheel and Pedal Set for its strong force feedback, overall performance, and quality pedals. Many users find it to be a realistic and customizable entry-level wheel, especially praising its compatibility and direct drive capabilities for the price. However, some customers have experienced difficulties with firmware updates, noted its bulky size, and reported connectivity issues. Additionally, a few users mentioned the wheel can get very hot during use.

This summary was generated by AI based on customer reviews.

    Great wheel for persons looking to get into direct drive. It is powerful, dont be fooled 5nm with the 10nm burst is great. It is very detailed for all road surfaces in GT7, Dirst Rally 2.0 and ACC on PS4.

    Product is amazing when functional. I’ve gone through two power cords in the span of 1 month of ownership due to a weak design. Random disconnect Cost me multiple races.

    Awesome wheel! The rim has a cheap feel but it is well made. It can be changed easy. Awesome Base! Perfect for Turismo.

    The T598 is a great wheel for beginners. However the Direct Axial Drive feeling is not ready to replace Fanatec or Moza products when it comes to feel.

    good but i dont like the shape of the base, it is very very good though with its function, no problems at all whatsoever, so buy it if the design doesnt bother u, its good for rally and all but the base doesnt match with racing cars dash

    Terrible customer service from Wilmington DE Store

    Purchased this at Best Buy Wilmington Delaware. Had the worst exprience. Bought the open box excellent condition version. Took it home and it was missing the gas pedal. Connected the wheel base to my ps5 and it didn't power on. Returned item and manager said he'd take $100 off. For what? So i can pay $100 plus shipping for new pedals? Bought the new one instead with $50 off. Took it home and it didn't work again. Never again with thrustmaster. What a terrible brand. If the manager was willing to work with me i would have spent $900 on the logitech rs50 8nm. Because of his attitude I went to micro center and bought the fanatec gt dd pro 8nm for $750. Money well spent. Great Wheel base and never gets hot.
