[rallyrazz]

Can anybody suggest a good steering wheel for richard burns rally on pc, that isn't overly expensive?

thanks in advance

I recently got Logitech Driving Force GT and it is very good with RBR (I especially like the 900 degree wheel, which makes driving much easier. G25 and G27 also have this feature but they cost two to three times more.). Another good wheel I think is Logitech Momo Racing Wheel. Though if you would like something cheaper, I can't help you there because I don't have experience with those.

I have the Driving Force Pro (2003 model, GT4). Although it is a little old now, it still does the job exceptionally. Like the GT, it has 900 degrees of wheel rotation (not sure if this is the same wheel as yours under a different name, NeverKnow?) and the grip levels are quite good - though sometimes I like to wear gloves or powder my hands due to the wheel sometimes being too grippy. You have the option of flappy paddles or a gearstick for manual boxes and an array of Force Feedback levels (game dependant).

I paid €150 for the wheel 5 or 6 years ago so you could probably pick one up online for a lot less.

hmm, looking online and prices are very reasonable, decisions,decisions...

So the Microsoft Xbox racing wheel wouldn't work with RBR? Dont want anything too fancy.

From what I can gather from the internet ( there isn't much information about it). From: http://www.richardburnsrally.com/support.htm#a7 (it's probably outdated)

Which Steering Wheels does Richard Burns Rally Support on Xbox?
Currently Richard Burns Rally supports 2 Xbox wheels, the Madcatz MC2 and Thrustmaster Universal 360 Modena Racing Wheels
And heres a little discussion using Xbox wheel (the wireless one) on PC to play RBR: http://arstechnica.com/phpbb/viewtopic.php?f=22&t=91965 and http://www.bhmotorsports.com/board/viewtopic.php?t=43971

Maybe someone who owned this wheel can help you little bit more.

After my G25 short circuit and died, I am looking at the Thrustmaster RGT Force Feedback Pro: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0029XGV4U

I know this brand quality is not as good as Logitech, but the G27 is too expensive for me. This one look fitting for rallying because I can use the stick shifter as handbrake and it has a clutch pedal which the cheaper Logitech Momo doesn't.

Only thing is the wheel diameter is only 10". I would like to hear from someone who has this model.
