Thrustmaster T598, Direct Axial Drive Force Feedback Racing Wheel for PS5, PS4, PC

ممتاز جدا

Item came brand new, sealed and original. No complaints.. The T598 has an issue with its power cable but warranty resolved it

if you have a proper set up and think this is the wheel, it's not. I don't believe that the mounting pattern for this wheel is not standard. if I didn't buy it with the discount of cyber Monday I would have been more furious. I now will have to fabricate an adapter or drill my wheel mounting plate to have it installed. or maybe sell it and get something more professional, I was mislead by reading direct drive thinking it would be good, didn't think this is worse than the tgt2

Screws missing for the plate to install.

wasn’t shipped with all the bolts+power cable is inconsistent and cuts out

I am scoring my review mostly on the force feedback. On the games it supports it is mostly very good to excellent. I upgraded from a t300rs and definitely enjoy the increase in FFB detail that I feel. I have mine screwed down top my desk. This in itself has pros and cons. It is very secure. The feedback and vibrations coming from this thing is a bit like an earthquake at times, so the shudder going through my desk is pretty intense. I have known things to fall off and hit the deck. I have a pretty solid, heavy desk so it's not because its a cheap desk or anything. Why is this a con? Because the the feedback sounds will be shared with all who are near you (if like me you're in a living room). If you have a dedicated rig to attach the wheel to that you sit in the feedback would be somewhat transferred into your body via the framework, which I imagine would add some immersion. This is based on an assumption since I have nothing to compare it to, I could be wrong and my solid desk might actually feel more like a car than tubular steel frames (like I said I have nothing to compare it to). Either way I am very happy. I have used this both for PC and playstation. GT7 is fantastic. On PC my personal favorite is Automobilista 2. The tyre wear model in AMS 2 is very immersive as you can feel the car slide as the tyres wear. It's also very satisfying as I am able to catch a lot of slides before the car spins, giving the feeling of always pushing to the edge. It's similar on GT7 but AMS 2 nails it IMO. As regards firmware I think it could be better, on PC at least. I played some older titles on my old t300rs which had some really good compatibility, with T598 it doesn't have the extensive compatibility of the T300. To make things worse when running a game that the wheel doesn't have ffb support for, it will just go completely limp (turns freely). It could at least pull back to the centre with an option to vary the resistance. These are my only gripes with the wheel. Other than that I hope the manufacturer will continue to improve the feel of the FFB as some games feel great while others feel a bit feeble. Remembering button sequences on PC can be a problem. I labelled all my button numbers to help.

The first time i tried i had my expectations low but it was the opposite,i can say its the new door for DD for beginners in sim racing,absolutely love it

The device from 3rd month start disconnecting and you can’t play any more and it is common issue you can search about it.

I’ve been using the Logitech G29 for a long time, so I noticed the difference straight away when I switched to the T598. Even though it didn’t fit my stand at first, the included clamps fixed that easily and held the wheel firmly in place. The pedals are a real highlight. Being able to adjust the spring settings gives you much better control and a more realistic feel compared to what I was used to before. The force feedback on the wheel is amazing smooth, strong, and really helps you feel the car on the track. This setup will glide you round the track and feels effortless and much more immersive than the G29. I also bought the Thrustmaster F1 add‑on wheel at the same time, but it turned out not to fit the T598, even though it’s also a Thrustmaster product. So if you’re planning to buy an add‑on wheel, make sure you double check the connection type and compatibility first. I originally bought this after watching other gamers use it, and I’m glad I did. It delivers exactly the kind of performance I was hoping for. I’ve been watching a YouTuber using this exactly the same wheel on the 9th of January 2026 for 24 hour race and worked amazingly good. The only thing about this wheel it gets very warm, but this is normal. Overall, a great upgrade with solid build quality, adjustable pedals, and fantastic force feedback.

Really good piece of kit that
