Hi there

I am going to buy a force feedback steering wheel to use with sims such as NetKar Pro and rFactor but am not sure which one to get. I want a good one and am not really concerned about cost (within reason) and have seen a couple of logitech ones that look good particularly the G25 racing wheel. I like the look of this as it has paddle gear shifters and also a clutch peddle but what do you guys think

Many thanks

I have the logitech driving force pro. It's a great wheel and not that expensive. It doesn't have a clutch and that's a bit of a letdown Sad

I don't mind driving without a clutch,but as I race a lot in the historic F1 cars,I get a weight penalty unless I set it to gated shifter and disable auto-clutch. I have considered a G25,but I'm put off by the lack of buttons on the wheel.

I went from a DFP to a G25, and if money isn't an issue a G25 is a must. Feels great and works great too. It's not that the G25 makes you faster than a DFP, so in that way it doesn't matter what wheel.

I thought RGT was Thrustmaster, I'd stick to tried and tested anyway tbh.
