EA WRC Wheel Settings
EA SPORTS WRC has no master force feedback slider on PC: Self Aligning Torque does that job. Here is what each setting does, published values for nine wheels, and how to tune them for gravel, tarmac and snow.
Where to find EA WRC wheel settings
- From the main menu press F1 (Options and Extras) → Controls → Edit Device for your wheel.
- Advanced tab: set Device Type to Wheel, Steering Linearity 0, Soft Lock On.
- Vibration tab: the force feedback sliders below.
Codemasters ended EA WRC development in April 2025; the last update was v2.3.1 (March 2025), so these settings should not change. MOZA wheels have native support since v2.1.5 (October 2024).
What each EA WRC force feedback setting does
| Setting | What it does |
|---|---|
| Self Aligning Torque | The main force through the wheel. On PC there is no separate strength slider, so set this first and lower it if the wheel clips. |
| Wheel Friction | Weight of the wheel. Works together with Tyre Friction. |
| Tyre Friction | How much you feel the front tyres losing grip (understeer). |
| Suspension | Bumps, ruts and surface changes through the wheel. |
| Tyre Slip | Vibration as the tyres slide. 0 gives a cleaner feel; 40 to 55 adds information on Logitech and Thrustmaster wheels. |
| Engine | Engine vibration. |
| Collision | Impacts with walls, rocks and trees. |
| Soft Lock | Stops the wheel at the car's real steering lock. Strength set on the Vibration tab. |
| Steering Centre Force (scale) | Only acts when the wheel snaps back to centre after a reset. Lower it if the snap is too strong on direct drive (40 or below on an 8 Nm base). |
Descriptions from EA and SimRacingCockpit's EA WRC guide. The Xbox version has no Wheel Friction or Tyre Friction sliders.

"–" means the source does not list it: leave the default. Simucube, Simagic and Thrustmaster's direct drive bases have no published values; start from the row with the closest torque.

Wheel software settings for EA WRC
- Logitech G HUB (G29/G920/G923): operating range 900°, sensitivity 50, centering spring off.
- Logitech RS50: compatibility PRO, FFB filter 5, dampener 60, TRUEFORCE audio 30, 1080°. G PRO: PRO, filter 8, dampener 15, TRUEFORCE audio 100, 1080°.

- Asetek: set up the RaceHub plugin with input port 20777.
Rotation and soft lock
Set the wheel's rotation at or above the car with the most steering lock, and turn Soft Lock on: the game then stops the wheel at each car's real lock. RALLY Technical uses 1,120° in game with MOZA; Team O'Neil Rally School uses 540° in Pit House for a quicker rally ratio. Use a lower rotation if you prefer faster hands in hairpins, and keep it the same in the wheel software and the game.
Tuning tips for gravel, tarmac and snow
- Wheel goes light or flat over big bumps: lower Self Aligning Torque; there is no other overall strength on PC.
- Too much shake on gravel: lower Suspension before Self Aligning Torque.
- Hard to feel understeer on tarmac: raise Tyre Friction a little.
- Wheel too light on snow: raise Wheel Friction for more weight.
- Rally needs a handbrake and quick hands: see our handbrake guide and shifter guide. Set your view with the FOV calculator.
FAQ
What are the best EA WRC wheel settings?
Device type Wheel, Steering Linearity 0, Soft Lock on, then Self Aligning Torque for your wheel (about 85 on Logitech and Thrustmaster belt or gear wheels, 50 to 65 on 8 to 9 Nm direct drive, lower on stronger bases), and Suspension, Tyre Slip and Collision from the table above.
What are the best EA WRC settings for a Logitech G29?
G HUB 900° and centering spring off; in game Self Aligning Torque 85, Wheel Friction 0, Tyre Friction 20, Suspension 60, Tyre Slip 0 or 40, Engine 100, Collision 100, Soft Lock 150, Centre Force on at 100.
What are the best EA WRC settings for a Fanatec CSL DD?
Self Aligning Torque 62, Wheel Friction 38, Tyre Friction 18, Suspension 100, Tyre Slip 95, Engine 100, Collision 50, Soft Lock 65, Centre Force scale 40; on the base FF 100, Peak, INT 1, FEI 80.
What are the best EA WRC settings for a MOZA wheel?
Self Aligning Torque about 51, Suspension 100, Tyre Slip 90, Collision 100, Centre Force off, 1,120° with soft lock; in Pit House damper 20% and wheel friction 50%.
Why is there no force feedback strength slider in EA WRC?
On PC, Self Aligning Torque is the main strength control. Lower it if the wheel clips, and adjust the other effects around it.
What degrees of rotation for EA WRC?
Set the wheel to at least the car with the most lock (for example 900° to 1,120°) and turn Soft Lock on, so each car stops at its own lock. Some rally drivers prefer around 540° for quicker steering.
