Good Deal?

I've been on the fence about getting one of these, but finally decided to do so after seeing this good deal. Amazon right now is closer to $400, but decided to compare prices on google and found this instead.

Standard shipping is free, fast option is $25, which still makes it a "good" deal. No xbox option for this, sorry guys. XBOX EDIT: (cool guy in the comments has a method that makes this Xbox compatible as well - *Drive Hub by Collective Minds* - research it?)

Total price with standard shipping came out to $368.04 for me.

Official store.

Free 30 day returns.

I think it is objectively better then the G29 or a cheaper Thrustmaster (T248), because you can upgrade the wheel (if you want) to something else (a few options) as you grow in your sim racing. Also, the optional gated manual shifter looks great. Logi has noise issues too, look it up. Not super knowledgeable outside of this, so I will not pretend to be. I do still think it's a good deal and it will work for me.

Others mention the Moza R5 kit, but that pedal system does not include a clutch pedal. +$200 at this current price, and no clutch?

This is a great wheel and pedal set. I bought this back in 2017 for around this price and have been happy ever since. I do recommend buying a decent wheelstand for stability while racing.

Also, if you are interested in getting it to work with any Xbox One or Series X/S, I would get the Drive Hub by Collective Minds. I've had zero issues with it using after updating the firmware upon arrival.

Where is the R5 kit for a little more than $100? Looks like it's $530 everywhere which is almost $200/a bit over 50% more (and while I'm sure the pedals are much nicer, they don't have a clutch)
Thank you for the info. This kit def comes with pedals too, though. Your message seems a bit misleading. Not willing to spend $200 on top of this, but you never know. Free returns after all. Everyone has a different budget and idea for a starter set.

For a little more than $100+ you can get the Moza R5 kit that comes with gas and brake pedals. That's a direct drive and comes with pretty good wheels and pedals.
You mean an additional $100 on top of the $340, right? I was about to scramble for a bit button on something I have no room for.

Great wheel. But a lot of problem. I have same thing die on me exactly after one year. There is a lot of videos on how to repair but none that identifies problem with my unit. Thrustmaster willl cost $200 to fix it.

I went from Moza R5 kit to TM T248. I like the pedals on the T248 better honestly, although the DD R5 wheel base obviously feels much better. Not sure if pedals that come on the T300RS are different from T248 but they look the same.

T248 has the T3PM pedals vs the T300's T3PA. I think(?) they're the same pedals but with hall effect sensors on the T3PM instead of the older potentiometers, The Moza pedals use load cells, so they should offer a lot more precise feedback (but personal preference comes into play too). The pedals are generally regarded as the weakest part of the T300RS GT, though still a substantial upgrade over the non-GT.

Note that I don't REALLY know what I'm talking about and this has all been gathered as I've been waiting on a sale for this particular wheel. It'll be a substantial upgrade over the ancient Sidewinder FFB wheel I was using, so while I'd probably go with the Moza for $100 more, I'm already stretching my budget with this wheel

The Moza R5 bundle comes with the SRP Lite pedals which use hall effect sensor instead of load cell like on the upgrade SRP pedal. You're correct that T248 comes with T3PM (magnetic) pedals. It looks like only the GT version of the T300RS comes with T3PA, not sure what model pedal comes with non-GT version but its only 2-pedal..

Gotcha, thanks! I was wondering why they'd use load cell AND hall effect at the same time hah

Apparently this is the model I have (need to try it on the PC still), but I have thoroughly enjoyed playing Gran Turismo on it

I just got a Drive Hub for the opposite - using the Thrustmaster TX on PS5. They're great entry/mid wheels without going to direct drive for more force and feedback.

There's another huge benefit to the Drive Hub - you can start to mix and match equipment. I plan to swap to Fanatec CSL Elite V2 pedals, CSL DD, etc. I don't like the Thrustmaster wheels which are kinda pricey and the Fanatec pedals seem just a bit better.

Good deal, but wow inflation is out of control. I bought mine for just over $210 a while back. I have since sold and upgraded to a direct drive wheel and Heusinkveld pedals, but this setup did me well for a while. Some mods to the brake can make it even better.
