Despite some differing opinions of its durability, mine has held up for over a year now. This wheel is much better than the Mad Catz wheel and worth the extra investment. -- Matt Lewis

If you only plan on spending no more than a hundred bucks than go with the T2, but if you wana take it to the extreme, go with the TSW system by Trevor Thomas. Its around 250 but well worth it and I think it has a life time guarantee. Its construction is that of the wheel sets installed in arcade games like Daytona(very durable). -David Gary-

If you want to go with a professional quality system and you race enough to warrant the investment, you may wish to consider one of the Extreme Competition Controls units, starting at $559. This may sound like a lot, but you get what you pay for... The ECCI driving system has won top honors for desktop driving controls in every professionally conducted comparison review to date!
