ThrustMaster T150 RS Force Feedback Racing Wheel (compatible w/ PS5, PS5 Pro, PS4 & PC)

I bought this product used off amazonIt cost me $170, it came with no signs of damage or use, it looked basically brand new. There are 2 rubber grips on each side of the wheel which feel pretty nice to hold, but I feel like after long-term use they might wear down. As for me though, the wheel still looks brand new. The wheel will make a loud whining noise the faster you spin it, that's just the nature of a gear-driven wheel. FFB feels like any other gear-driven wheel, not the best, but it's there and it does the job. It helped me get into sim racing and I don't regret the purchase at all. The wheel itsself is amazing for a gear-driven wheel, it has pretty weak FFB (I ran it at 75% strength) but it's definitely enough. I set the steering angle from something like 900 degrees to around 360, which made it way easier to drift and correct over/understeer, and also since I played at night, it kept the noise down because I didn't have to whip the wheel 360 degrees one way. The pedals do their job, brake pedal has some resistance and gas pedal has basically none. They are very light and cheap and will slide around/tip over. This setup works great on a desk, and I used it for over a year on games like BeamNG, Asseto Corsa, FH5, RaceRoom, and My Summer Car. Paddle shifters feel great but are LOUD. I upgraded to a Fanatec CSL DD, and the paddle shifters make basically no noise, they will probably wake someone up before the sound of the wheel's gears turning will. To fix this, I just used the 2 buttons on the top to shift gears and it worked just fine. The wheel looks nice, it's small and works on basically any desk. The clamp is good. Setup is easy. I currently have it kept as a backup, if my csl dd breaks then I will have no issue using the T-150 again. Great wheel, I was considering going for a wheel with no FFB but god am I glad I didnt. I have to give it 5 stars because I got what I paid for, $170 and cheap pedals but good FFB that works as expected. I do recommend using this with a wheel stand, possibly the GT Omega Classic, it's made for low-power wheels and you won't have to worry about your chair or the pedals, and you can get a good driving position. You can also go for the GT Omega Apex if you plan on upgrading to a stronger DD wheel in the future, then the apex will hold up just fine to both the T-150 and entry-level DD wheels (think moza r9, fanatec csl dd).The only thing I wish was different about the wheel is the loud paddle shifters. That's it. Everything else about this wheel is great. for the price you're paying (assuming you got it for $170, like me, I personally would NOT pay $220+ when you can get it as cheap as I did in brand new condition.)

The media could not be loaded. Update 4/9/19After 2 years of occasional use my gas pedal spring gave out. After doing a quick google search I found this is a common problem. I contacted Thrustmaster and they had a replacement spring available but had to pay more for shipping than the spring itself. Not a big deal but be aware. See below for original review.This wheel isn’t perfect but offers great value for the serious gamer.It might be slightly smaller, and offer fewer buttons than more expensive wheels but it’s significantly cheaper. I’ve owned this model for over a year now and I’ve had no problems with the mechanics. It continues to work as expected. The feedback this wheel offers is great. If you are serious about racing games this is a good entry level wheel. Thrustmaster offers cheaper models like the T80 but they don’t have the same force feedback.The wheel doesn’t come without flaws. The rubber grips on the side feel good but I don’t understand why it doesn’t go all the way around the wheel. Most of the time my hands are on the rubber section of the wheel but still, they cheaped out. Also, it could have more customizable buttons for things like traction control but I guess that’s how they get you to spend money on more expensive models. There are work arounds such as using the d-pad.I believe there are several other wheel options that mount to the main motor unit. So if I want, I can replace my wheel with a better one without buying a whole new setup.

This is my first wheel, and I was shocked at how good it is. I reluctantly settled for this after considering the t300, but didn't want to pay that much. The force feedback on this was the biggest surprise, and it is waaaayy better then most people will say. There is a little granularity to it when making tiny adjustments, but I honestly stopped noticing it after a couple days. The ffb is weaker then basically any others, but if you play Assetto Corsa it can still just about rip your arms off when you crash. I personally don't need strong ffb, I just want detail so I can feel what the car is doing, and that is where this wheel is really good. It is belt fed rather than direct drive, so still won't give the best detail that is out there, but I still think this is worth at least $300 in terms of quality, and the price is half of that!Biggest downside is that you cannot swap the wheel out. However, the wheel itself is great, very comfortable rubber, paddle shifters are solid metal. The only real issue is not having enough buttons, but there are enough for any casual player. The pedals it comes with are cheap in quality, but still function well, and you can upgrade pedals separately later if you want (I went to the t-lcm loadcell pedals).If you aren't sure you want to put a ton of money into simracing, but want to get a taste to see if you will like it, this is a great start!
