Before buying, be aware that: 1. You’ll want to have Windows 10/11 on a PC, even if you’re an Xbox gamer, so that you can download essential firmware updates. Do not overlook this, even if it means bringing the wheel to a friend’s house to perform the update. As long as you have a Windows computer, it is an easy update to perform. 2. It is well worth experimenting with the built-in FFB settings (1, 2 and 3) so you can have a great set-up for the driving feel and responsiveness you want with minimal in-game tinkering. 3. On console, you have to go with Thrustmaster accessories if you’re going to add-on an H-Shifter or handbrake, so look those up and keep that in mind if you think you’ll want to upgrade your setup. It’s the same deal with other manufacturers like Logitech—accessories have to be from within the same ecosystem unless you’re playing on PC. That said, it is tough to beat for the price. It has a good amount of torque with its gear/belt hybrid system (you’ll get far less if you settle for the gear-driven T150 or Logitech G923), and configuration through its digital display is convenient, especially as settings carry from game to game. It is not perfect, especially as it bugs out like everything else on XSX from time-to-time. However, it is an overall satisfying wheel to drive, and will probably make you want to own a full-blown sim rig at some point in the future. Read more
Easy peezie install, nice but cheap feeling all plastic steering wheel makes noise when you squeeze it cheap.. Read more
It’s a decent starter wheel, but for a little bit more you can get a much better wheel somewhere else. Mine broke within a year and the customer service team is little to no help to figure out a solution Read more
At first I regretted buying it. The default settings for Horizon 5 were abysmal. It made every car undrivable. I went to sleep thinking it was all a mistake, but after some quick research the next day, I changed the settings within the game and wow!!! What a difference! The force feedback on this wheel is quite something. It truly needs to be experienced to understand how immersive it makes racing games feel. It feels very accurate to whatever terrain you're driving on and to whatever objects I'm hitting or crashing into. However, if you are about to hit a car head on, you will feel it before it happens (millisecond) which is a little strange The feedback also changes depending on the vehicle I'm driving. The LCD display on the wheel can be customized to display whatever you like. I prefer RPMs which will blink when it is time to shift. I find this to be the most useful reading for racing about. The paddle shifters are necessary for emersion. They have a nice tactile click that some reviewers complain as loud. I have the surround sound blasting, so the entire experience is already loud. I don't mind it. The shifts are fast and precise. The pedals feel nice and have an appropriate amount of feedback and response to pressure. The brake pedal seems a little on the stiff side, but you get used to it. I do believe the spring in the brake pedal can be changed. If you're thinking about buying this, do it. This completely changes the experience of racing games for me. I can ever go back to a controller ever again. Read more
I had doubts when I bought this but now that I have it, it is a great device for all racing games. Being able to drive recklessly but still safely is something everyone should experience. The force feedback isn't the best compared to the nicer brands but for this price range, I do love it. My only complaint is it doesn't fit on all tables/desks. I bought this one knowing for the price it had one of the biggest desk clamps but my desk is still do big even though it isn't that big. Lastly, I would recommend a racing chair/mount. I don't have one but I have used one before and the experience is once again leveled up as it is more stable and even more realism. Read more
Got this for my son. We had a blast playing together. Read more
It’s fantastic, essentially brand new only cheaper. Read more
While this wheel is decent for beginners plz know that the rotation speed of the wheel is very slow it really works against you when drifting or when you lose grip it doesn’t know what to do and you don’t either since the wheel is always behind by 2 seconds I’d highly recommend something else like a Logitech g29 or g920 or fir a little more go fir the best wheel on a budget the t300/tx those are much better options the only things that was worth it when it came to this bundle is the pedals there fantastic but I’d honestly buy them separately and get a t300 or tx without the set of pedals with thrustmasters h shifter and get an Amazon e-brake perfect beginner setup this set up tho is not great its slow rotation ruins this wheel compared to other wheels not to mention there’s a dead spot fir force feedback when the wheel is straight and 10 degrees in either left ir right and is noticeable and can mess you up once I’m a while Read more
