T598 faulty
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I’ve had this wheel for about of a week now, and I had a bit of issue with this. Sometime the wheel would disconnect mid race and would result in me lossing a race and crashing the car. I do like the build quality of the wheel but the wires aren’t as secure as I would like. I think it’s the reason why my wheel keeps disconnecting. Also sometime even the pedals would disconnect on me, the throttle wouldn’t work but the brake would. Man paying 500 buck plus tax for this wheel feels like a scam to me, I was really excited to use it but I guess not.

- Pros mentioned:Force feedback
Good wheel
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Good wheel but it’s probably not worth to buy at $500 compared to MOZA or Fantec, this wheel would be a fair price at $400. Has good force feedback but not for the price.

Wasted time and money
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought this bundle as soon as it hit the store. However I haven't been able to update the firmware via My Thrustmaster App. I have wasted so many hours at this point that I'm giving up. I will be returning this item for refund. This is my first Thrustmaster product and it will be my last!

Dead on Arrival
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I was excited for this, but after hours of troubleshooting i give up. Not a user friendly experience, and I'm not a newbie when it comes to sim racing gear. I Tried Everything. Trust me. Don't buy this. Dead on arrival. Restarted, updated, changed plugs, uninstall firmware, reinstall. reinstall software. double checked countless times. Changed every setting and the force feedback never worked. Also no matter how many times I tried to set steering lock it never worked, the wheel would freely spin with no resistance. Also when the wheel was sitting still it has a slight rumble to the wheel and the wheelbase makes ambient ringing noise. Waste of my time and money. returning it. Don't buy.
