    Replaced a G 923 with the T598 once got set up to me it was like night and day . The T598 wheel and pedals I feel I have more control over the car i'm driving turns are smooth brake and gas feel are very good .The wheels torque is way above the G 923 . thrustmaster T598 is a very nice wheel pedal combo .

    I have a TGT II, but I prefer the T 598. Feels more realistic. It actually tests your skills as a driver once the correct settings are installed

      Hello, thank you for your comment ! The T598 Wheel Base uses a Direct Axial Drive technology, which give more sensation compared to a T-GT II. Having more information from force feedback gives you more precision in driving. Sébastien from Thrustmaster Team. Thrustmaster

    This is makes you feel like you are driving a real car. Some wheels stop turning after so far around, not this one it will keep spinning. Definitely elevates your game!

    This wheel is amazing. Its perfect as a starter DD wheel. Only thing is that the drivers are not updated straight out of the box .so first I had to connect to my PC, Update the drivers and then connect to my PS5 to work properly. I see a lot of youtubers saying that its too plastic like and not solid but i differ, i feel that the quality of the wheel is amazing for the price. The settings mentioned on the Thrustmaster website is for pros im guessing as its too strong, I just an above beginner level so but i still had to turn down the FFB for me to adjust.

    Works well, better mounted to rig than desk.

    Wheel works well on PC and console, will need to use included mounting plate to mount onto a sim rig. The desk clamps are quite weak and I ended up breaking mine fairly quickly. Works well with a racing stand. Firmware update is a bit tricky, need to do the required button combos in a very limited time frame for wheel to read them properly.
