Keep in mind

  • 2.3 Nm with gear noise: far less detail than direct drive
  • Many drivers upgrade within a year

How PlayStation wheel support works

  • PS5 needs a licensed wheel. Look for PlayStation on the box. Logitech (G923, RS50, G PRO) and Thrustmaster (T598, T248) sell separate PlayStation and Xbox versions.
  • Fanatec: only two bases work on PlayStation, the Gran Turismo DD Pro and ClubSport DD+. The CSL DD and ClubSport DD do not, and cannot be upgraded to.
  • MOZA and Simagic bases do not work on PS5. They are PC (and, for the MOZA R3, Xbox) only.
  • Most PS5 wheels also work on PC, so you can move to PC racing later without buying again.

Best wheel for Gran Turismo 7

Gran Turismo 7 supports the major PlayStation wheels; check the game's wheel list for newer models. The Fanatec Gran Turismo DD Pro is made for it, with a GT-branded wheel and a direct drive base that grows with you. The Thrustmaster T-GT II is the other officially licensed GT wheel, but direct drive options now cost the same or less. On a budget, the Logitech G923 or the direct drive Thrustmaster T598 are the best starts. For F1 25 and other F1 games, any wheel here works; a formula-style rim is optional.

How we chose

We have not lab-tested these wheels. We picked current wheels sim racers recommend for PlayStation at every budget and checked torque, bundle contents and PlayStation support against manufacturer and specialist pages. Where a source does not confirm PS4 support, we say "check box" rather than guess.
