Reviewers who have tested the Thrustmaster T818 Direct Drive wheelbase are mostly unimpressed. The Logitech G Pro Direct Drive wheelbase remains the top choice among the new “mainstream” direct drive units. Some reviewers are comparing the Logitech wheelbase to wheelbases costing more than twice the price, such as the Leo Bodnar Direct Drive wheelbase which retails for $4423 US. The Moza R9 wheelbase is priced just under the T818, yet outperforms it in testing.

This serves as a no-nonsense entry into realistic driving. Dual-motor force feedback delivers honest steering weight and road detail, while the sturdy floor pedals offer progressive braking and smooth throttle. Stainless steel paddle shifters, a leather-wrapped rim, and a full 900-degree rotation create a setup that earns its spot on your rig without needless extras. It works cleanly with Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, and PC.
