Not really interested in a product for such a price for my personal use, but interesting to see what you'd get for that money. Kudos to mentioning the issues Fanatec is having; there's too much "youtuber gets free product, hypes product mindlessly ignoring all points of criticism" out there already.
Probably the fastest delivery Fanatec has ever done.
Doesn’t seem like a competitive price nowadays. It seems like the new thing is getting quality DD into the hands of casual racers.

@@MrTehNoms There are three options, I think. This wheel, the G Pro, and the older DD Pro. I have both the DD Pro and G Pro. The latter kicks the DD Pro's arse, and for the price - pedals and shipping included - is great value compared to this new wheel. But this DOES look very nice. One thing I liked with the DD Pro was the dedicated buttons for BB, TCS and FM, replicated here.

Its worth every penny, its the best wheelbase available by far for any platform. Fullforce is a game changer and will make a big difference once its released. Logitech has something similar called trueforce. This wheelbase has the fastest slew rate so it responds the quickest and you get ffb the quickest, the smoothest and most detailed ffb, and it can hold its torque after hours of gameplay without any drops while other bases do have drops. Also once fullforce is here it will take this wheelbase to a new level, and it will clearly without doubt be the best.
We love the wheel cam! I recommend more videos with it! It’s definitely a throwback as well to when you first started
Really appreciating all your videos lately mate, Legend! You convinced me to finally just buy a rig and I absolutely love it, especially as I'm not currently on the road, it really fills the driving void! Paired it up with a PSVR2 and it's breathtaking, you're welcome to check out my driving 😅

Digit Gaming did a good review about Fanatec's parent company Endor and its business condition. They have a human resources problem and it's obvious. Not to mention how bad they are at turning around deliveries to customers or the fact that they'd take orders for the new wheel without having completed a license agreement with Sony. Just very sketchy business practices imo.

Fanatec is going to keep spending on their marketing budget but cant stick to the basics of their operation with fulfilling orders. Why keep spending on influencers to sell their product if they cant fulfill months of backorders? On top of that their customer service takes nearly 2 months to reply to their tickets? They need to fix their business first before pushing more sales
Quick release is nice in case of an accident you can get out easily.

Man I found your vids a few days to a week ago and you are just so entertaining to watch. Well earned sub and cant wait for your next upload.
I’ll be impressed when they finally start making full size wheels a standard because mostly adults who drive cars with a full size wheel buy them and kids don’t usually build sim racing units. Knowing your market is key and they don’t seem to understand it yet and neither do any other sim accessory companies.
Customers should expect delivery in March ....2030😂

11:28 Sick setup, dude!
Seems like a great bit of kit, I just wish they went with a flatter, carbon GT/Race centre plate - rather than the OEM plastic styling, but that's just my preference.
I really love the camera view for the wheel itself. It helps seeing how much rotation you're putting your car under during certain corners, especially for someone like me who's trying to improve his lap times and cornering technique. If possible would you be willing to show this view during qualifying and time trial videos? Great video all in all.

Thanks Steve! I got the DD Pro that came with the CSL Pedals and LOVE IT! Also running the load cell brake. The only things I might like from this Extreme to my Pro is the more premium feel of the wheel and paddle shifters and the bigger smoother (I guess) motor. But for that price I'm happier with my DD Pro. Cheers!
I just got my gt7 DD extreme going to have to order the pedals now but I like the option of being able to pick whatever pedals I want and not just being stuck with the pedals that are compatible.. I've only ever used thrustmaster wheels so I am extremely impressed with this fanatec wheel it's very heavy and built with quality very happy with it..This wheel plus my new GTR pro sim cockpit and my vr2 headset will help me to reach the next level.. Control is everything in Sim raising so I'm glad that's the one thing you were really noticing is the level of control you have with the wheel.. Very nice...Top Vid..🙏💯
For someone who been playing with a controller since 1999 this looks so awesome. I so need a wheel setup. Come on Super GT you keep the upgrade and send out the old one.

Thanks Steve for the detailed review! 😅👍I still am looking to get into wheels for GT7, but I think the price with no pedals is ridiculous for this Fanatec. Also wish they can do a firnware update to get as you said better info like shift lights, speed (mph) and gears at the sametime on that little screen. Overall, Good video matey! 🤣🤘

With me just forking out the money for the DD Pro I’ll be waiting for a few years before I spend the extra money. Thanks for the review Super GT! 👍
so basically if you race on console, buy this cuz it's kind of your only out of the box solution. thanks for the review. some things i would have liked to see: a comparison regarding ffb settings to another fanatec wheel. what validates the upgrade? will you be switching to this now? a slo mo of that instruction toss. good work man. keep it up
can you make a review of the T GT - II i would love to hear some of the pros and cons on it. btw love the content keep it up!

Sorry for the late reply. I agree they should have tossed in some Load Cell Pedals and sold it as a full bundle.
While I can't speak to the shop times of this product, I have had two orders with fanatec in the last couple months. I think the longest wait I had was a week and a half between ordering and having in hand.

Hello SuperGT, a fan of Barry R here
That toss of the instruction manual was PERSONAL.
When I got mine I hooked it up and did one race. That was over a month ago.
Steve - you should play a few races on a controller to showcase how much better a wheel is. That would be a cool comparison!
I love the Diamond Dogs wheel.
Looks like a nice wheel. So strange that it is a GT branded wheel yet has more functionality on PC 🤔

Its because of the Game. Windows already had those features via Fanatec drivers. GT7 will have to make an update. However since GT7 and Fanatec have a pretty good relationship, it should happen soon. Hopefully...
It would be so nice, if the display would only show current gear like in Dirt Rally. I don't want to see how fast i am, but i want to see the gear im in at all times. The RPM Meter isn't colored yet...oh well! I hope tthis comes in the next few updates and then we can get wild with fanalab ^^
Well, pretty safe to say that I want one. But I play in VR, so I can't see it. Can't see the screen, can't see the buttons. But the major switches look like they're in the same pace as the DD Pro wheel, so I should be fine. I think Steve mentioned the smoothness and the precision, this sounds good to me, diaregarding the screen and so on. But the big rim (and smoothness and precision) is what I'm after. Sounds awesome. I will have to wait and hope that it becomes considerably cheaper though 😬
Might get a GT7 update for the wheel.
I think 300mm is perfect size for wheel rims
I was the dude on pole in that first race and my internet that day was dying of death. I didn’t even get to the second corner before it kicked me out lol
you were definitely correcting oversteer much faster than usual
I'm going to order one right now, It might arrive next January 😂
I wish they would do an upgrade to the Mclaren GT3 wheel or finally give us that Bentley rim that keeps showing up but is never released. That one looks good though for GT7 especially as its designed specifically for the game. I presume they have the licence now then for the DD+ if you're using it?
@ViaticalTree
4 ай бұрын
Yeah they’re shipping now. I believe it was the licensing that was the hold up for the DD+’s.
As for FullForce is a "subwoofer" that makes vibrations so you can feel when going out of track or over a curb or any other vibrations on the tyres, the thing is, this isn't implemented in this wheel, TrueForce is the same thing in the Logitech PRO and there it actually works, similar technology is available in ThrustMaster TRS300 and Logitech belt driven G923.

Can you comment on this wheel's consistency and smoothness?
Direct control over brake bias, fuel map, and TC is a step in the right direction.

Any clipping? Also, the QR2 lite limits the max torque to 8NM, does not make sense

My DD PRO didn't even arrive yet and I'm already regretting not getting this instead.
Yet another great video Steve. Interesting to hear your thoughts on the GT DD Extreme. As a follow up to your comments about Fanatec & their delivery issues : I was going to order the GT DD Pro in October 2023, then Fanatec told me that the DD & DD+ were coming so I held off in the hopes of getting a "more premium setup". I ended up ordering the DD+, the Podium Porsche Wheel (with the endurance button set & the paddle shifter set & thanks to the Black Friday sale ended up getting the V3 pedals with the Tuning kit & Damper kit for just €300. I received an email today to say it's on it's way & then hear about the GT DD Extreme ..... Talk about P***ED OFF. The GT DD Extreme (apart from not having the pedals) is EXACTLY what I wanted in the first place. Instead of which, I've now got (or will have soon) the DD+ (perfect), the V3 pedals (perfect) but the Podium Porsche wheel instead of the GT wheel. GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR
Have to check if Fanatec situation improved since a month ago they couldn't fulfill almost any order, but i really want a PS5/PC compatible wheel.

It depends on where you are located. UK? It may take longer. West Coast of N. America no issues. Don't wait since the Suez Canal currently is not being used by major shipping companies....
Do you talk about the possibilities of buying it separately or something like that, if it’s worth it instead of the old GT Pro?
Hi nice vid! is it in my mind or does up/ downshifting with the DD extreme makes a lot of clicking noise? also all other buttons. at the moment i own a T248 and its loud!
I literally just watched your old wheel review yesterday as I’m buying a wheel, then you bring this out just hours later!
This wheel is going to unlock some new records for Super GT.
Can you show us your wheel and base settings?
Hey, just wondered what size monitor do you use, and rough specs of it. Resolution and refresh rate. Thanks 👍🏻
If you already have a good set of pedals from Fanatec, then this is honestly not a bad deal. The DD+ is a 15nm base, that goes for $1000 on its OWN. Minus a steering wheel or adapting your old wheel to QR2. But if you’re starting out, then the regular Pro 8nm version and buying the Elite pedals is the way to go. I just ordered my set yesterday and it’s already shipped and coming this Friday. From what I understand currently, if it’s in stock, they ship fast.
The wheel looks so good (and I really like the fact it's bigger since I have big hands) but the price man, wtf
What is wheel like does it have good force feedback and what does it feel like compared to other wheels
Im curious if you will/would keep this on the rig. Or switch back to the dd1.
On one hand, i really really really really really want one. But on the other, i don’t play enough racing games for this to be worth it
I have the PS Podium.. Steve is this an upgrade to that in feel.. I am in process of changing over to a qr2 for it
This is probably the best review for one of these that I've seen. Great video man! If this thing made you that much quicker then it's the real deal.

Insta like after saw you reading the instructions book exactly like me 🏆
Now that you mention it in the video, not sure if you're a fan of it, but seeing some iRacing content on the channel would be interesting.
I have been playing on my XBox one and Forza Motorsport 7 and my Thrustmast TMX wheel, for a number of years and have just ordered the Fanatec CSL DD 8NM wheel with a ClubSport Steering Wheel Formula V2.5 X (for XBox) and the CSL Elite Pedals V2. that said in order for me to go to Forza Motorsport 8 I need to change to a XBox Series X. So my question is do I now make the move to Grand Turismo 7 and a playstation 5? Love to get any feedback from this group, and even Super GT. Amazing. In any case thanks for any feedback and this video.
Hey Super GT! Can I ask why you're using DD Pro instead of Podium nowadays?
Do you think itm will be compatibile with gt7 in the future? Also Botton Module Endurance or not?
At $2150 Aussie dollars and a 70%-80% chance you won’t get your FANATEC order this is an item that’s just for people over seas. We will just have to stick with good ‘ole notchy G29 until a decent wheel is reliably and affordably available 😂
This is perfect 😎 really perfect 🎉
Would you recommend this over the Logitech Pro? It appears that "True Firce" is similar to "Full force". I currently have Club sport V3 pedals so the $1300 price is about equal to what I would have to pay for the complete Logitech system. It seemsthe Fanatec eco system is much more robust than Logitech, since they have had the last year to add wheels, and haven't.
Just amazing omg
What wheel settings do you use?.?.? And game force feedback settings????
Hi Steve. When you were using your DD X wheelbase, did you notice the wheelbase vibrating if you overdrive the tires? I'm getting that after updating the firmware. Is there a chance this is intentional and I should use it as a guide when I put the tires at their limit? Thanks!
