Thrustmaster T-GT II Racing Wheel - Officially licensed for PlayStation 5 and Gran Turismo - PS5 / PS4 / Windows - UK Version

Product Information

Leather-wrapped wheel with 25 action buttons, 1 push-button and 4 rotary selectors natively recognized in GT Sport (differential braking, traction control, fuel mapping, torque management) Racing wheels are not compatible with games in CLOUD GAMING or STREAMING mode (in particular those in GAME PASS, Xbox Remote Play, PlayStation®Plus, GeForce NOW, Luna,…). In CLOUD GAMING or STREAMING mode, only standard gamepads are compatible. Around the rear of the steering wheel are two metal shifter paddles. These aren’t magnetic, instead opting for springs, and they feel OK to use. Not amazing but not the worst. Fanatec steering wheel

As a result, the Hori is also much lighter than any other wheel here. You’ll still need something to clamp it to, but this is the one wheel here that won’t seem hard done by if it’s not treated to a proper frame or wheel stand. Remarque : Sur PlayStation®5, votre volant fonctionne également avec tous les jeux PS4™ compatibles. Liste disponible dans la catégorie LISTE DES JEUX PLAYSTATION®4.We’re slightly surprised the wheel diameter is quite a small as it is, though. It’s roughly the same as the T300, about 70% of a real car’s scale, smaller than the Fanatec rival. A larger wheel naturally provides a more serious, realistic feel. And takes up more space, mind. There are a few downsides to these generally great wheel sets, and it’s all about the parts outside of the wheelbase. The steering wheel is solid and very grippy, but uses a rubber grip rather than a leather one. Many people will be fine with the material, but after using the G29 we did miss the feel a little. It’s definitely a learning curve but feels so satisfying to get right too. Just make sure you have a sturdy table or proper rig to mount the wheel on or the torque will break it free. FR - Sur PlayStation®4, n’oubliez pas d’appuyer sur “Bouton PS” du volant pour que celui-ci soit fonctionnel ! On ACC, you have to be smooth with your steering inputs like in real life otherwise you end up everywhere except the tarmac. We won’t pretend that the belt-driven system, excellent though it is, is as honest as the direct drive is, but it’s only something you'll whine about if you’re an ambitious and determined sim racer.

Starting with the Thrustmaster wheel, this wheel feels really quite premium. There is a large Gran Turismo logo in the center giving a nod to the game it was licensed for.

Au moment de la publication, Sony Interactive Entertainment LLC n'a pas encore testé ni endossé la compatibilité PS5 avec toute la gamme. Like its predecessor, T-GT II includes all the other now-legendary technologies and features popularized by the T-GT that have paved the way for its success since 2017:

Some of you won’t be pleased that there is some plastic on the wheel’s front too. See the silver part towards the bottom? That’s plastic, not metal. On PC, the USB selector switch on the T-GT racing wheel’s base must always be set to the OTHER position! PC

One last new feature is actually the wheel’s construction. T-AEC-Q refers to an automotive electronics standard used by almost all car manufacturers worldwide to ensure that things like vehicle infotainment can survive the rather harsh automotive environment. The T-GT’s internal electronics meet the same standards, so should prove more durable. If you're on a tighter budget, fear not. The best racing wheels can be found across a wide variety of budget scopes, and we've endeavored to include both affordable and more premium setups. Still, it's worth thinking about the kinds of games you're going to play with a racing wheel. The best racing games that benefit most from a wheel setup are those with more realistic or sim-like elements.

Just looking at the Fanatec CSL Elite, you can tell it’s made by nerdy obsessives. After all, who else would choose that funky grey disco ball effect on the base? Not all will love the look, but at least it’s not super-shiny. If you are looking for recommendations for the best racing wheel for Gran Turismo 7, we have a complete guide for that. We look at and recommend the best wheels for GT7 at a range of budgets. On the flip side of the wheel are two plastic shifters. These don’t quite feel as positive to use as the magnetic shifters on other Fanatec steering wheels. And the rubberised hand grip doesn’t quite feel as nice as the grip on the T-GT II. Popular sim racing brand MOZA Racing does have some mid-range racing wheels which would be perfect for this comparison. However, none of MOZA’s current racing wheels are PS5 compatible.

Fanatec wheels are perfect if you're looking for a supremely accurate and immersive racing experience. Fanatec's options tend to be on the pricier side. But you'll usually get a lot of extra bells and whistles as a result. What is the best budget F1 racing wheel?
