great I bought this wheel because I didn’t want to spend 300 dollars. After reading some reviews I was afraid it would be a waste of money. But i turned out to be perfect value for money for me. I think it doesn’t get any better for a wheel in this price range without force feedback. the bungee cord system provides a great resistance when going through corners, I can steer very accurate dispite the lack of feedback or rumble. You can’t expect those things for this kind of money. The pedals are also very high quality with progressive resistance, which is also something that you normally don’t get in this price range. The resistance is so big that you will need a wheel stand or something like that, otherwise the pedals will slide around like crazy. I read in other reviews that the wheel feels plastic like and toy like. This is really untrue. I also own a madcatz wireless racing wheel for xbox 360 and i was expecting this spider wheel to be lower quality, but as it turns out the madcatz was…
Really great entry level wheel. Ok, so this review is really just my initial impressions. I may revise up or down later.
Perfect entry level wheel for that transition from pad to wheel and easy on the pocket ^_^ Great entry level wheel. Without force feedback it’s kind of like you’re on training wheels. Worked great for me coming from playing car games with a control pad. Now I can’t even imagine playing another racing game with out a wheel set up. Speaking of setup, the wheel is very easy to setup, either clamp it to a desk or bolt it onto a wheel stand. I eventually out grew this wheel though as I wanted to enhance the setup for both a bigger challenge and for a more immersive experience. The only add on available for the wheel was the 3 pedal set with clutch. For that reason I had to order the TX which offers 3 pedal set, H–pattern and two other wheels to swap out. Also the TX will have forced feed back which I am now ready for thanks to the VG.
