Review: Solid option if you’re not looking to pay direct drive prices - Before buying, be aware that: 1. You’ll want to have Windows 10/11 on a PC, even if you’re an Xbox gamer, so that you can download essential firmware updates. Do not overlook this, even if it means bringing the wheel to a friend’s house to perform the update. As long as you have a Windows computer, it is an easy update to perform. 2. It is well worth experimenting with the built-in FFB settings (1, 2 and 3) so you can have a great set-up for the driving feel and responsiveness you want with minimal in-game tinkering. 3. On console, you have to go with Thrustmaster accessories if you’re going to add-on an H-Shifter or handbrake, so look those up and keep that in mind if you think you’ll want to upgrade your setup. It’s the same deal with other manufacturers like Logitech—accessories have to be from within the same ecosystem unless you’re playing on PC. That said, it is tough to beat for the price. It has a good amount of torque with its gear/belt hybrid system (you’ll get far less if you settle for the gear-driven T150 or Logitech G923), and configuration through its digital display is convenient, especially as settings carry from game to game. It is not perfect, especially as it bugs out like everything else on XSX from time-to-time. However, it is an overall satisfying wheel to drive, and will probably make you want to own a full-blown sim rig at some point in the future. Review: Great wheel for beginner use.

T300 has ~4nm of torque T248 has 70% more torque than the T150 (from the TM docs/video) so that would seem to be about 2.1 * 1.70 = ~3.6nm But different drive wheels are hard to compare on just torque values alone. Belt drives generally have better holding torque, while geared wheels can sometime produce better vibration like peaky force. TM is I guess trying to get the best of both worlds with their hybrid wheels. FFB is more than just torque, wheel speed and granularity can matter a lot. The motor drivers from one wheel can be better than another **Q: What shifters are compatible with with this thrustmaster wheel?** A: The T248 comes with paddle shifters. If you would like to add a manual shifter, we recommend the TH8A shifter from Thrustmaster. **Q: Will it work with a 220V outlet? Will I need a transformer?** A: The adapter is rated for 100-240V. All you need is a plug adapter to fit into the electric socket. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Solid option if you’re not looking to pay direct drive prices *by D***. on August 27, 2023* Before buying, be aware that: 1.
