What would be the best beginner sim racing wheel/setup to get?

I am an absolute noob when it comes to sim racing and setups, but very interested in getting one

Welcome to the addiction!

If you want the best "modern" tech without spending a fortune, skip the older gear-driven wheels (like Logitech/Thrustmaster) and go straight for Direct Drive. It's smoother, quieter, and gives way better feedback.

For Xbox or PC: Grab the Moza R3 Bundle. It’s specifically made for Xbox/PC and is easily the best entry-level wheel right now. The Moza R5 is excellent too (stronger force feedback), but it's PC-only unless you buy extra adapters.

For PS5: Moza doesn't natively support PlayStation yet. The closest equivalent is the Fanatec GT DD Pro, but it's pricier. If that's too expensive, just grab a Logitech G923; it's older tech, but it works perfectly on PS5 and is bulletproof for beginners.

Definitely do not get Moza for Xbox, unless you want to be disappointed with the low amount of supported games. The TX is still a smooth and good option that is easily the best starter wheel on Xbox

If you are looking for a decent cheap wheel, a logitech g29, g920 or g923 might be worth the price if its second hand (first hand its a bit overpriced. If you are looking for a better wheel in the long run that is still cheap and good, the moza r3 is good

Plenty of options. Are you on PC or console, and whats your budget?
