Recommend me a steering wheel for computer

[GarrettM]

I just got GTR2 and I want to get a steering wheel cause using the keyboard and mouse is really a joke.
What are you all using and what do you recommend?

G25 or bust

[GarrettM]

Hmm, links, pics, pros, cons, price?

[GarrettM]

Damn! That this is pretty sweet but quite expensive. Are there any other feasible alternatives?

Logitech Driving Force Pro. Logitech's top of the line before they released the G25. Still has the 900 degree force feedback, and runs about 100 bucks. It's technically a PS2 wheel, but works with PCs as well, and will run on PS3.

just save up and get the logitech g25...real stanless steel and leather, h pattern 6 speed, smg...what more do you want. buddy has had one since they were new, and has held up great. you should also pick up Test Drive:unlimited, you wont regret it either

The dfp is nice but it in no way compares to the g25.

[AlarmedBread]

The dfp uses the same internals as the g25.

Feel is nearly identical, just the wheel on the g25 is nicer, you can get adapter hubs for a dfp to run any momo/6bolt style wheel you want.

dfp ftw, get an actlabs shifter, and a pedal box out of an e30, then you'll be in business. :p

[e304me]

What the efffff. the internals are not the same at all. any of it. nothing. The g25 uses to motors with different gearing and has about 1/15th the gear resistance the dfp does

[e304me]

oh and the pedals are also a lot better in addition to there being an additional one

[s0urce]

Why do people suggest the DFP has the same internals as the g25? It's like some fanboy decided his DFP was inferior to the g25 and then claimed it just "had the same internals". Rubbish. g25 ftw.

Notice how much more powerful the Force Feedback is on a g25. Same internals my ass.

dfp has no clutch?

[Justin B]

Correct.

I never knew people were so passionate about toy steering wheels.

There's passion behind most 300$ "toys".
