The Logitech G29 is considered the best wheel for esports racing beginners and even a lot of pros are still using it. Two force feedback motors in the wheel provide a very realistic feeling. The steering range of 900 degrees lets you pull off every manoeuvre possible. The bundle includes three high-quality metal pedals. It’s compatible with PC and PS4. Xbox One Users should look for the G920, which nearly has the same price and features. 
Beside the Logitech G29 a lot of racers consider the Thrustmaster T150 as one of the best sets for beginners. The standard set comes with a 2-pedal base. If you don’t want to dispense with the clutch pedal you can also get the T150 Pro, which comes with a 3-pedal base. The rotation angle is adjustable to up to 1080 degrees and the drive system with adjustable force feedback lets you feel the track’s relief and every loss of tire grip. The set is compatible with PS4, PS3, and PC. 
As we’re going lower in the price segment, we take a look at another Thrustmaster Wheel. The T80 Racing Wheel comes with a 2-pedal base. Both pedals have an adjustable angle of tilt and the brake pedal features a progressive resistance. The wheel has two paddle shifters and its sensitivity can be adjusted to improve the steering precision. The Thrustmaster “bungee cord” system provides a realistic resistance and feedback. You can use the T80 on PS4, PS3, and PC. 
Yes, you can also get some good wheels and pedals for less than €100. The Hori Racing APEX and OVERDRIVE are officially licensed wheels and thus can be easily connected to your PlayStation 4 (APEX), Xbox One (OVERDRIVE), and PC (APEX and OVERDRIVE). The wheel includes two paddle shifters on the side, a rumble feedback system and a 2-pedal base. The buttons can be programmed individually and a rotation angle of 270 degrees offers you enough space for your manoeuvres. 
Ferrari is one of the best-known names in racing that stands for victory, glory, and high speed. With the Thrustmaster Ferrari Wheel you can have the spirit of the glorious Italian Scuderia Ferrari at home. This wheel features Thrustmaster’s “Bungee Cord” system for realistic feedback as well as two paddle shifters and comes with two pedals. The Ferrari Wheel is an older model which is why it is only compatible with PlayStation 3 and PC. 
At the very low price of €50, the Speedlink DRIFT O.Z. can be a perfect set for people who want to try out a wheel without spending too much. Although its price is very low for a racing wheel, it contains all features you need: a 2-pedal base, two paddle shifters on the sides of the wheel, twelve buttons for individual use, and vibration feedback. The wheel is compatible with any PC that runs Windows 7 or later versions. 
Let’s be honest, you can’t await pure realism from a wheel set that costs €35. But that doesn’t mean that you can’t have fun with this one. The Esperanza EG103 gives you the very basics you need for racing simulations: two pedals, two paddle shifters, vibration feedback, and a nice racing colour design. The wheel has a rotation angle of 90 degrees and thirteen buttons to use. It is compatible with Xbox 360, PS3, and any Windows PC. 
Now this is as basic as it can get. There are no pedals, no extra wheel, just a bracket for your PlayStation 4 controller. It might not be a real racing wheel, but we just couldn’t leave this gem out of our list. Getting a wheel is the first step into serious sim racing for most players. However, looking at the prices for high-class sim racing hardware can be pretty frustrating. But there is good news for you: Good racing wheels don’t have to be expensive. We collected the best wheels you can buy on the cheap!
