PS4 Steering Wheels: We sort out the compatible offers
Welcome, dear reader! If you’re here, you need to enjoy sim racing in your living room because you’re looking for THE steering wheel. That’s what we’re here for! I will introduce you to the various PS4 steering wheels currently available in this article.
Prices, features, opinions from enthusiasts and our team… You’ll find all the information you need to make the best choice for your needs and budget.
Need a cheap PS4 steering wheel?
Come on, let’s get started with our low-cost steering wheel models. These models are great if you just want to discover sim-racing without breaking the bank, but be warned: when it comes to feeling and quality, you’re still very, very, very limited…
There are two PS4-compatible models, the Thrustmaster T80 and T150.
Let’s face it: the T80 is just a toy. It doesn’t even have a force feedback system to feel the forces applied to the car. Anyway, on to the next thing!

PS4 mid-range steering wheels
In the mid-range market, we find our friends at Thrustmaster, with several models offering excellent value for money. The only competitor in this customer segment is Logitech. For many years, the G27 and T500RS models led the way, but today, the two serious contenders in this category are the Logitech G923 and the Thrustmaster T300RS.
Let’s see which one stands out on the track.

Top-of-the-range PS4 steering wheels
So, yes, I know; I can already see all the purists setting fire to me in the comments…
“What do you mean, consider a T-GT2 or a CSL Elite high-end? How can you say that belt-driven steering wheels are high-end? Have you ever tested a Direct Drive?”
So, I implore you, elitist and ill-tempered purist, to put things in context!
Obviously, we’re far from the standards on PC wheels with Direct Drives from Fanatec or Simagic, for example. But here we’re talking about PS4-compatible steering wheels! Forgive me for saying so. These models represent the very top-of-the-range for the old Sony’s console. Period.
Fanatec Gran Turismo DD Pro best on its category
Fanatec CSL Elite
Thrustmaster T-GT 2
Fanatec Podium Racing Wheel F1
The Fanatec CSL Elite has been discontinued since Fanatec decided to launch the CSL DD. Its new model will clearly revolutionize the market with a Direct Drive at the price of a belt-driven flywheel.
Scouring ad sites and specialized groups, you can still find a few second-hand models in very good condition for around €300 to €350. But beware of scams! Ensure you have someone you can trust at the other end of the screen…
The obvious choice
The best top-of-the-range option is INDENIABLY the Fanatec GT DD Pro. The value for money is simply light years ahead of other Playstation-compatible models. What’s in it for you? A Direct Drive steering wheel and Fanatec quality at a sickly low price.
