    It wаs а grеаt еntry lеvеl whееl. yоu саn still find thеm usеd but i wоuldn't rесоmmеnd it аt this pоint sinсе yоu dоnt knоw thе соnditiоn оf thе intеrnаls аnd hоnеstly thеy hаvе gоnе up in priсе еvеr sinсе thеy stоppеd mаking it. I аlsо оwnеd thе thrustmаstеr (xbоx vаriаnt, but sаmе thing). Thе thrustmаstеr is nоtiсеаbly bеttеr in thе fоrсе fееdbасk dеpаrtmеnt but thе priсе is аlsо nоtiсеаbly highеr. If yоu plаn оn plаying hеаviеr simulаtiоn titlеs suсh аs iRасing, rfасtоr, аssеttо соrsа thе fоrсе fееdbасk diffеrеnсе will bе quitе nоtiсеаblе. If just dirt rаlly аnd mоrе sim-саdе titlеs i wоuld sаy thе G29 wоuld bе quitе аdеquаtе.

    What kind of experience are you referring to? Can you tell more about it? I think it would be nice.

    Thanks. :)

    If you are on the low budget you can check out the Logitech models. However thrustmasters seems to be more than enough in that case. Nitho seems to be good for both price and quality too. I had Logitech G920 in past. But I have swap it for the thrustmasters T150 model.

    That's a great tip!

    You have actually chosen good options to indicate. They look very interesting choices.

    Yes, those are medium priced though. There are some expensive options too. But those are only good if you have spare money. For me I prefer the simple yet less pricey options for now. I'd go for the one mentioned above.

    You can look for some on Amazon or eBay, they're not that pricey, they're actually quite cheap. You can get some of them for only $20 or $30, but the quality wouldn't be that good.

    They are not pricey but do a lot of research before buying.

    Cheaper ones are usually used or chinese products. So I think they won't be much of use either way. I'd say having wheel for good enough usage and new product is much better option.

    My brother bought me a wheel as a birthday present for only $75, and it was of really high quality. Anything above it is just a scam in my opinion.

    Yeah some of the time I think cheap cost can be good. And some of the time it can be scammed. I think higher cost does not always meant good product either. I agree on that.

    My friend tried this and he bought a steering wheel on eBay for $40 and the quality of the steering wheel is okay. You just need to look for the best quality on eBay and Amazon.

    I bought myself a Logitech G27 wheel shortly after the NFS:Shift 2 came out and honestly, I'm pretty satisfied with it. They don't sell it anymore though, since it has been replaced with G29, but I assume that's a very good wheel as well. It's NOT cheap though.

    I know this is an old thread, but I guess the information is still relevant. It just turns out that I'm looking for one as well, and so the suggestions here are going to come in very handy.

    If you are looking for a high-quality wheel then I would suggest Microsoft gaming wheel for this purpose. You can easily purchase the PC wheel for almost $300 from Microsoft store or on the eBay. I have experienced gaming on the Microsoft wheel and it was wonderful.
