Just curious if anyone has the !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! racing wheel, or similar models. We've been considering it, but the price is certainly steep compared to other wheels. Obviously I'm also looking at the !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! because it's essentially the same thing just at a significantly lower price point. Reviews all seem pretty good for both products and so I'm really unsure without hearing first hand from someone.

!!! UNKNOWN CONTENT TYPE !!!

Between my mister and I, we have all the consoles and an awesome gaming PC, so ideally it would be compatible with all systems. I'm leaning towards the G27, but at this stage in the game its not PS4 nor XB ONE compatible.

Must haves for any game racing wheel are: three pedal system (because who wants to spend all that money to drive an automatic), stick shift (also having paddles is fine, but preference is certainly for this).

We'll obviously take recommendations for any other wheels, so let me know what you think?!

Thanks Oppo!

Get the G27. Fanatec has wheels but they are VERY expensive.

To be honest, the G27 isn't that much better than the G25, so it would be my choice. I had a G25 for a while and loved it. Never had any problems with it.

I had a G25 for a few years and it was awesome! I'd definitely recommend it; the price is a bit much, but you get pedals, a shifter, and the wheel, which really isn't a bad deal.

Logitech are great wheels. I would stay away from anything cheaper.

G25 or G27 would do you nicely, both are awesome. Though in my experience the G27 is a little quieter and runs a hair less hot due to its helical-cut gears instead of the straight-cut gears on the G25.

You guys are the best. Thanks so much for the input. I'll definitely stay away from the Thrustmaster then. The G25 seems good but I can't seem to find any in Canada, and ordering from the USA puts it at a higher price than the G27... So it looks like that decision is already made for me.

Is it bad that I'm so excited?!
