Thrustmaster T598 Direct Drive Racing Wheel & Pedal Set - PS5 & PC

The thrustmaster T598 is everything I expected it to be and so much more. Great condition. Never had a problem with thrustmaster products.

It doesn’t work with so many games, it’s glitchy and a pain in the ass. I hate and will never buy another Thrustmaster product. The feed back when it works sometimes is weak Don’t buy this crap

Update: randomly disconnects and is completely useless on ps5. Works fine on pc. My serial number is after the early defective units as all. Looks like I have to deal with costumer service and have it replaced Get a dd pro It’s direct drive and ps5 compatible for around $500. It’s the best deal for a wheel you’re going to find Use the settings on the wheel base. Stock settings are low out of the box and the wheel feels like a g29. So I was underwhelmed until I realized you can change everything. Complete game changer And there’s one other issue, it randomly disconnects from the ps5. Zero issues on pc though. People say it’s the power supply, idk. But it is annoying when it happens. Started after I updated it, no disconnects before that. But other than that issue it’s an incredible wheel

Drives like butter. Wait, let’s step back a little. I’m upgrading from the T300RS. Which was a very solid wheel. But it was time to try direct drive. And the T598 delivers. I’m a PS5 GT7 gamer and initial setup was a breeze. (Mind you I did not use the pedals as I own a set of LCM pedals) Pros: • excellent force feedback. At high speeds feels like holding two shake weights. • Road feel is perfect. Smooth when you have good grip, loose when the car is out of control, and very shaky when you lose grip. • Relatively easy firmware updating. • Easy to understand fine tuning controls Cons: • Wheel controller feels cheap • button layout is not intuitive • must use mounting attachment which adds to wheel height. Overall, it’s a great wheel and a welcome upgrade or starter wheel.

My first wheel. I'm in love with it. With the last update I can feel a lot of feedback from the car. Recently, I purchased the load cell pedal upgrade. It's a shame it comes by separatly but it's real the wheel with it for console. The real issue is the infamous power adapter issue so far. I got it last year on August and I recently faced the issue. It started with randoms disconnection but not it bassicalle disconnects when the wheel vibrates. Good news is that because is inside the 1 year warranty, thrustmaster support will allow me to return the device to get a new one. Hopefully this new wheel has been updated with the solution.

This review may be a bit biased coming from someone who uses a more powerful DD system on PC. But was still using the G29 for the PS5. Pros: Easy to set up, but you still need to "dial in" your settings like you would for any DD type of wheelbase based on game and your driving preference. Has a screen to show different information that you can choose. Took a bit to figure out, but once you do, you can change almost all settings right on the wheel using the screen and buttons on the wheel. Pedals feel nice, and the brake pedal comes with 2 different springs to use based on your resistance preference. Connected to PS5 and then PC with pretty much no issues. Paddle shifters felt good and responsive. One of the very few DD wheelbases compatible with the PS5. Cons: The wheel itself feels just barely better than a G29. Force Feedback (once dialed in) felt slightly less powerful compared to other 5NM wheelbases. (see opening disclaimer) The Quick Release system just seem really weird on how it was designed. 3rd pic shows QR closed, 4th shows open. The way the Quick Release was designed, you have a limited (at this time) number of options for wheels. With no way to use any non-TM wheels that I could find based on their own website. Priced at $599.99 (at time of order/review) it is at a higher price point than comparable 5NM sets. For that price point, you think it would include a clutch pedal, then it would be on par price wise. Overall, (even with the negatives) I wouldn't be too upset to have paid full price for this set. TM is a well-known brand and almost every product I've used from them has been good. And this set seems like it will be no different.

Love this setup would 100 buy again

I bought this steering wheel back in January 2026. It was awesome until March and then it started having disconnect issues upon research. I found out that it’s a common issue caused by the power supply. I reached out to thrust master support and they agreed to send me a new power supply after getting a new power supply in March it is now June and this power supply is now doing the same thing and the pins are burnt up again. I am debating on whether to reach out to support again or if I just cut my losses. This unit is a lower cost, than other brands it’s obvious the quality is not there and the unit still is not cheap. If Thrust Master decides to offer me a permanent fix I will definitely change my review.

ステアリングの抵抗？が十分なくらいあるので満足です。リアルな運転をしているかと言われれば物足りない所もありますが十分です。細かい調整もできたりします。今後はペダルやシフトをアップデートしていきたいですね。

¡El Thrustmaster T598 es, sin duda, un volante sobresaliente! Como muchos, he investigado las diversas opiniones en línea, algunas lo alaban y otras critican su Force Feedback (FFB) de 5 Nm, considerándolo insuficiente. Sin embargo, mi experiencia es radicalmente diferente, y creo que es crucial para aquellos que, como yo, no vienen del ecosistema de PC más hardcore. Si eres un veterano del sim racing en PC, con expectativas específicas y quizás acostumbrado a configuraciones de gama más alta, es posible que encuentres ciertas "desventajas". Pero para un usuario intermedio como yo, que juega exclusivamente en PS5 y da el salto desde un Thrustmaster T248, esta compra ha sido un acierto total. La mejora es instantánea y muy satisfactoria. En cuanto a los pedales, aunque comparten la tecnología magnética de los T3PM, los que vienen con el T598 me resultaron mucho más cómodos. A pesar de que el paquete base solo incluye dos pedales, no me importó para nada dejar de lado el embrague y los T3PM anteriores; la ergonomía y la estética de los nuevos pedales son superiores. El FFB me parece más que adecuado. En ningún momento lo he sentido débil. De hecho, en ciertos escenarios de Gran Turismo 7, especialmente con coches de alta potencia a velocidades elevadas, tuve que ajustar un poco el FFB a la baja. Mantener el coche en línea recta se convertía en un desafío emocionante, demostrando que los 5 Nm son, para mi uso, más que suficientes. Incluso con el volante montado en un Racing Wheel Stand, la fuerza generada es tal que el soporte se mueve un poco, lo que habla de su potencia. En definitiva, el T598 supera en todo al T248 que tenía. Si buscas una mejora significativa para tus sesiones de sim racing en consola, y vienes de un volante de gama baja - media, este es un volante que recomiendo con los ojos cerrados.

Fontionne super bien je suit satisfait

Great feedback from the wheel, best for the price you can get. Compatible with PC and PS5. Loving it.
