According to our racing wheel expert
The Thrustmaster Ferrari 458 completes your racing experience on the Xbox 360. This racing wheel is a replica of the wheel of the Ferrari 458 Italia; not entirely coincidentally the same racing car that graces the front of Forza Motorsport 4. With a steering angle of 270 degrees, 2 metal shift levers for the gears, and 2 robust pedals with realistic resistance, you really get the feeling that you are behind the wheel of your favorite racing monster. You attach the Thrustmaster Ferrari 458 to your table, desk, or other surface via its stable V-shaped clamping system.
Note: to use this handlebar with your PC external drivers are required.

Friday December 2nd I could receive my F458 set and then the best moment to unpack it. :) I was pleasantly surprised by the beautiful packaging and neat layout. Once everything is unpacked. Neatly connected to the Xbox360. Then comes the moment to boot and race supreme Forza4. Well this goes very smoothly. No settings to adjust. Just plug 'n play and race. The steering wheel has a very solid layout and is very pleasant to hold. The mounting on a table or desk is perfect and child's play. The pedals are linked to the steering wheel via a cable with an RJ45 connection. As is the case with most and works perfectly. The feedback from the pedals feels firm. Very good feedback from the springs under the pedals. Anti-slip is also there and ensures that they don't slide too much. A positive note is also that the cable from the steering wheel is a nice length so that you can sit at a distance from the TV. The steering wheel works with feedback from a spring to build up tension. This works very accurately and I could really steer right next to the curbs to get through the bend or navigate through traffic. The buttons on the steering wheel have a neat feel and layout. Everything is very well positioned and the shift flaps work perfectly. They fit well and feel very solid. There is also no delay, which makes switching smoothly with a nice click. The only downside is that the D-pad in the form of an engine start button feels a bit cheap. Which is in contrast to the other components and construction of the handlebar. He has a very cheap click as a side effect. But otherwise it does its job correctly when you have to navigate through menus. So all in all a nicely finished steering wheel with very good functioning and provides a better racing experience. Definitely recommended if you don't have the budget or want to spend on a Fanatec setup. For me my most successful purchase this year.

I am very satisfied with the steering wheel for the Xbox 360, it fits very well in your hand! (kind of rubber-----> Good grip) All functions on your console are also on your steering wheel. (rewind, change image, etc...) I also think the chess paddles are perfect, these are made of aluminum which feels very good! You can rotate more than 180 degrees to either side. The response speed of the steering wheel corresponds exactly to the image on TV! The accelerator and the brake pedal are also very good but you have to make sure that you put them on a mat or something like that that they don't slide away too much, you can also solve this with eg: putting a box behind it, etc.. If I then still have to say a minus is that there is no vibration in the steering wheel, but everything else is great! And of course the service is also super fast. Ordered before 10 pm is delivered the next day!

this can be sent in on December 2nd. one day before the expected delivery date. the steering wheel is immediately connected forza 4 and go. well that's fine. no to point at all. even if you miss the force feedback a little bit. After a few rounds of practice, times came that were faster than my times with a controller. Formula 1 2011 put in it, wwoww it goes so smoothly with this steering wheel.
size is good. scale 7 out of 10. pedals slide a little but then it was on laminate. not bothersome and easy to fix. In short, super handlebar for a good price. 5 stars.
good send top delivery good price
