Great up grade for any one looking to get into direct drive

Believe it or not, this improved my racing skills. I went from an older/competitor wheel/pedal set and instantly improved as the feedback and realism makes it better to understand what's going on in GT7. Having issue getting the firmware to update using my PC but not sure that's a T598 issue. If you do not have a solid rig to mount this on the torque makes it challenging. When I replace that I am certain I will be even faster in the games.

I bought this as a gift for my boyfriend, he loves it. It’s quite similar to driving a vehicle. And I feel like it would be great for beginner drivers, before getting on the road.

After waffling around on a first wheel for mixed PC/PS5 use, I ended up deciding to spend a little more vs a G923, and I'm glad I did. This thing is awesome, and makes GT7 on PS5 and ACC on PC loads more fun than using a controller. Preset levels are handy for when the kids want to play.

I'm genuinely impressed with this product! I moved from a PS4/5 TM80 to this. To say Night and Day difference is an understatement. This is arguably the best bang for the buck when considering direct drive wheels (no internal belts). The pedals are... the standard pedals, nothing super special there; but they do what they're supposed to do. This rig is all about the wheel!

Good direct drive wheel for the cost it’s very detailed when driving, the desktop clamps it comes with keeps the wheel nice and secure, there is no flex in the wheel to base connection, the pedals are decent the brake feels soft, upgrades that will be out soon that should make a big difference, overall it’s fantastic for its price point.

Great wheel besides disconnection issues do to power supply issues Other than that it’s perfect.

Coming from a t150, this feels so much better. 5nm constant torque, but able to boost higher to give those nuanced feelings of kerbs, and bumps with opponents. Paddles feel nice and have a solid thunk when activated and stop when activated instead of travelling further like most other wheels. Gear jolt feelts awesome, especially when connected to a full rig where it jolts the whole rig. The pedals are metal and able to be removed from the foot plate for full customization, and easy mounting to rigs. While its just a traditional brake pedal for now until they release a load cell pedal upgrade, i already feel more in control and am getting better lap times than even with the t3pm set my friend has. If youre wondering wether you should buy this or not, you should stop thinking, and just buy it. You eill not regret your purchase. The main advice i have, once you buy it, go to thrustmasters support page for the bundle, and it has all the settings, game adoption, how to update, specs and measurements, it has all the info youll need to set it up and get the best out of it and they are constantly updating it.

Motor is great, Size is very Bulky and Tall for what it is, Pedals feel great but not heavy enough to not slide on carpet.

It's a great wheel for someone who is upgrading from a g29. It's my first direct drive wheel. It helps you feel what the car is doing better. Only gripe is no load cell brake pedal. But i hear it's on the way.

Best bundle package for your money! Highly recommend if you’re a serious sim racer.

This is an amazing wheel especially when you consider the next closest competitor is $300 more and you get more in the box with the thrustmaster. GT7 optimization leaves a lot to be desired but time will hopefully make this no longer an issue.

This was my first direct drive wheel and I couldn't be happier with it. I bought this over a month ago to use with my PS5 and would absolutely buy it again. The price is much better than Fanatec's PS5 option.

Great wheel,wheel base is a littlw big had to adjust my tv so i can see over the base but other than that it is a great wheel

Having been a sim racer for almost 15 years, using the Logitech G27, G29, Turtle Beach wheel and finally the T598. While the G27 was always a great wheel by Logitech. The G29 sucked. Turtle Beach, well, that was a play toy for Xbox or Playstation. But this Thrustmaster T598, you can "tune" it a lot more than any other wheel system I've had. I'm still getting used to it and learning what it can and cannot do. For the price, I've very satisfied.

We purchased this for my son’s birthday and he uses it everyday to race on his PlayStation. He also had a previous version and he says this one is more responsive.

Best bang for your buck! Great mid level entry for sim racing enthusiasts.

But has power supply cord issues kept disconnecting other the it's very good if it's not doing that

Based on playing GT7 on PS5 - Pros: Smooth handling and gear jolt provides fun driving experience. Easier and more casual to drive than belt drive, making sessions longer/less fatigue. Good value as a beginner set. Nothing under 500 seems better. Cons: Wheel cannot keep it straight itself and the oscillation is very bad at high speed even with Updated firmware and trying all intertia/friction settings. Wheel feels cheap and feel the need to spend more. No vibration in the wheel when compared to GT7 tuned belt drive (T-GT II), makes less realistic during driving.

Must buy for any entry/mid level PC and PS5 player. There is no better option than this direct drive wheel for $500. Do not consider Logitech G29 or G293, they can’t be compared.
