How to Choose a Thrustmaster Racing Wheel
Picking a Thrustmaster wheel comes down to your platform, the force feedback you want and your budget. Here is how the current range compares for South African sim racers.
The T128 and T248 are the entry point. Both are hybrid belt-and-gear wheels that ship with a pedal set, so you get a complete kit at the lowest price. The T248 steps up with a stronger motor and a built-in display over the more affordable T128.
Belt-driven bases like the T300 RS, TX and T-GT II use pulleys for smooth, quiet feedback and are proven all-rounders. Direct-drive bases connect the wheel straight to the motor for sharper detail and more torque: the T598 delivers 5 Nm and the PC-only T818 up to 10 Nm.
Match the base to your platform. The T300 RS, T-GT II and the PlayStation edition of the T598 cover PS5, PS4 and PC. The TX and the Xbox edition of the T598 cover Xbox Series X|S and PC. The T818 is PC-only. Check the platform icon on each product page.
Entry sets like the T128 and T248 include pedals. Higher-end bases such as the T818 are often sold base-only, so you add a pedal set (like the T3PA or T-LCM) and a Quick Release rim to suit your discipline, whether that is Formula, GT or rally.
For casual and console racing, the roughly 3.9 Nm of a belt-driven T300 RS is plenty. If you chase precise feel in iRacing or Assetto Corsa, move to direct drive: the T598 at 5 Nm suits most sim racers, while the T818 at up to 10 Nm targets enthusiasts with a rigid mounting setup.
