Not for everyone/game
I purchased this wheel because of all the positive reviews I read here, I just wanted something to make my gaming experience better and this certainly did NOT.

Your handling is so much better with the regular controllers, precision is completely lost here the cars are all over the place with the wheel, you have several settings to change and I tried everything but still couldn't manage to do as good as I did with the controllers.

I first tried it on GRID and crash crash crash..., It was better with forza2 but still not good enough, the cars slip out of control at the first turn, I also changed the regular view mode to the in car mode and it was even worse.

To be fair the wheel looks great with a real quality finish to it and the clamp works really well so do the pedals, installation was very easy and the force feedback is awesome, it feels like a sports car.

I really wanted to like this wheel but I just couldn't I'm afraid it's back to the controllers for me while using the wheel ocassionally just for fun.

Conclusion: maybe it's just me!!

this wheel is more than worth the price
I'm back to playing forza2 and have actually started the game over because of this wheel... i bought a "table-mate" II to mount the wheel and it works perfect.. the table's height is adjustable which is important:

table: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000EGJQG4?ie=UTF8&redirect=true&tag=wwwincomp%5F1026%5F33971-20

also, for those who drive with a manual transmission the wheel has "paddles" which are located on the wheel and are activated by your fingers... they are hard to see in most photos... but it makes shifting gears effortless... the force feedback is nice and the wheel is top notch...

very glad i got it... i'll be playing many more driving games now...

Wireless Racing Wheel
This is a great addition to an xbox system. The racing wheel works so well I'm amazed its not sold in a package with an xbox system. I use it with Forza II and if you have gone through the whole game and it starts getting a little old this makes it completely different. It does make the cars easier to control but it also makes the whole game seem more realistic even if you dont race as well at first its still more fun. The bumps and kickback when you run upon curb are exactly accurate. The only draw backs are a little loss of brake feel (the peddles dont have feedback) and I'm sure a car like a Lexus would not take quiet this much steering effort. It steers easier if you use batteries but does not give the heavy feedback like the electric powered part. Its certainly a worthwhile addition to an xbox system.

Fun, impressive quality
I bought two wheels and they have brought new life into my old racing games. My friends and I have been really impressed with the quality of the wheel. It feels great to hold and makes it that much more fun to drive. Not all setups work great though. We put ours on a table in front of the TV. It has some nice clamps that don't hurt the table, but still keep it in place. Also, we keep it plugged into the wall for force feedback and then also don't have to worry about batteries. Like that it is awesome. But if you use this in your lap or only with batteries, the fun of using the wheel will probably drop dramatically.

xbox360 wireless racing wheel
I had a logitech racing wheel[that was ok]except I kept tripping over the wire to the box. I don't trip any more with the wireless wheel and it works alot better in responcitivity and control. The only thing I did't like was the ring in front of the brake&gas which supports the base. My heals were uncompfortable on the ring so I used a hot knife to cut the ring off. Alot better! I would highley recomend this racing wheel, it has great control and ease of setup. Tommy W.
