Default What wheel should I get for my PS2?

I saw this topic: http://forum.finalgear.com/viewtopic.php?t=11428 with the awsome Logitech G25 but that wont be out until October images/smilies/thumbdown.gif I need to get something while I am in america in August. I saw this on amazon : http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00...games&v=glance The price is good and it looks ok. What do you think? what is the best wheel I can get today? I will be using it with GT4.

Logitech Driving Force Pro no doubt. Works with pc too, has 900 degrees of rotation, and the only reasonable option at the moment.

You can close the thread images/smilies/smile.gif

Actually, no. Get the Logitech G25 when it comes out soon.

Driving Force Pro... hands down the best current wheel for the PS2 anyone that tells you different is being silly. now comes the hard part. do you drop 100 on a DFP this august when you're in the US and then save up again for the G25 or do you skimp on a wheel in august to get you by and then have to save less money for the G25

If you need one now, the Driving Force Pro is the only option. In the shop you linked it's way too expensive though, I just bought a new one from a dealer for 70 Euros.

DFP, no question about it. Not because of the 900degree rotation, but because of the quality. The wheel itself is more robust than alternatives, pedals are still logitech crap though.

130$ is way too much for it though, in EU 70-80euros is a realistic price. Why do you want to get it so badly from the states? The box of the DFP is HUGE, and it weighs quite a lot. So first of all the Airline company will probably charge you for extra laguage weight, and 2nd of all customs might give you a headache as well if you don't declare it (dunno about rules in Izrael). And especially with that price from Amazon, overall you'll be proper fucked.

Close thread indeed, this has been discussed zillion times.

erm... why can't all this crap be in the same thread as going to the US one? You ask wayyyy too many questions carsightings, there are loads of professional reviews for racing wheel where you can read from.
