Gran Turismo 7 is PlayStation-only, so you need a PlayStation-licensed wheel. Here are seven that work well in GT7, from a cheap Logitech G923 to the official 15 Nm GT DD Extreme, each with the GT7 settings its maker recommends.
We may earn a commission when you buy through links on this page, at no extra cost to you. It never changes our picks. How this works.
Cheapest: Logitech G923 or the older G29, with three pedals. A used Thrustmaster T300 RS is a popular alternative.
Mid-range: Thrustmaster T248 for a smoother belt wheel, or the Thrustmaster T598 for direct drive with pedals.
Best value direct drive: Fanatec Gran Turismo DD Pro, the official GT7 wheel.
Plug and play: Logitech RS50 (8 Nm) or G PRO (11 Nm).
No compromise: Fanatec GT DD Extreme (15 Nm) or a ClubSport DD+ with a PlayStation-licensed rim.
Every pick also works on PC. Only the PlayStation versions work on PS5: Logitech and Thrustmaster sell separate Xbox models. More choice in our best PS5 racing wheels and budget wheels under $300.

The method for any wheel: start at Sensitivity 1, raise Max Torque until the wheel stops getting heavier in fast corners, then back off one step. Full guide: GT7 wheel settings.
Is Thrustmaster better than the G29?
The Thrustmaster T248 and T300 use belts, which feel smoother than the gears in the Logitech G29 and G923, and the T248 adds a screen and adjustable brake. The G923 counters with TRUEFORCE, which some GT7 players like for kerb feel, and it is usually cheaper. At direct drive prices the comparison flips to Thrustmaster T598 vs Logitech RS50: the T598 includes pedals, the RS50 is stronger (8 Nm vs 5 Nm).
Is GT7 better on a wheel or a controller?
On a wheel, for most players: braking, throttle control and catching slides are far more precise with real pedals and force feedback, and GT7's physics reward it. Plenty of players still race online with a controller using GT7's assists, so if you only play casually, a cheap G923 is enough to find out whether you enjoy it.
We have not lab-tested these wheels. We picked PlayStation-licensed wheels that GT7 players and specialist guides recommend most, at every budget, and checked torque, bundle contents and platforms against makers' pages and reviews. GT7 settings are the makers' own where published.
