    Shaun you will have to apologise to your viewers cos it's not a carbon fibre wheel it's a brushed aluminium plate mate😮🙂👍

    Wheel feels really good. It changes the way the base feels. ❤

    Love your reviews man… been watching them for a while… I have a question for you, I got my T-LCM pedals after your review some time ago and part of my break cell got damaged and was wondering if you have any idea where I could perhaps locate a kit?

    Thats a cool looking wheel. Thank you for another video and 249 dollars is a good price. Peace✌️

    Nice review Shaun! I'm interested in this wheel but I'm on console. I thought the console DD T818 was supposed to release last summer, any idea if we are getting anything for console?

    New review. The quick release on the 488 wheel seems to have some fitment issues. The metal flap on the t818 can't close all the way with the 488 wheel. Did you have the same problem with your unit?

    Mine also dont close flush to the shaft but seem secure enough and don't come loose.

    Go simagic for that price! Both thrustmaster and Logitech are both junk. It’s 2024 and they are stuck in 2000 with these cheap designs!

    ​@stefanschuchardt5734 not really when you consider all plastic parts internally. And the direct drive they make is almost 1000 bucks and its fuckin 10nm lol what a joke.

    @@nick-dm3if you just bashing Thrustmaster. The internals are all metal. The FFB is excellent. I own a T818, you probably don't and never tried the wheelbase. So please don't judge a book by its cover. Also the 10nm is constant torque, the peak torque is much higher.

    😮Everyone this has no carbon fibre anywhere on this rim it is a brushed aluminium plate so if you look around the outside of the rim and on the back of it there is no carbon fibre weave at all so this guy hasn't done his homework on this wheel very well at all, just saying, keep on racing👍🙂🚗

    Are you sure it is a real carbon fibre and not aluminium with a sticker? As where the buttons are there is a different texture which looks very much like aluminium same from the side profile where you measured the thickness, looks very much like aluminium

    Sorry Sean but your dropping the ball first you constantly say it’s a carbon fibre front plate then again when saying how cheap it is then you make out Rev lights and dash missing is why it was cheap no it’s cheap because it’s plastic and aluminium with fibre “cladding”

    It’s aluminum with a carbon sticker. Other guys take it apart. He review is fine but he’s an amateur. Other people dissect the wheel. It’s all plastic.
