Thrustmaster Open Wheel Add-On unboxing and review

This is my unboxing and review of the Thrustmaster Open Wheel Add-On wheel. I was pleasantly surprised how it felt and how it handled. Definitely worth the upgrade. Thanks for watching!!!

[@sarahorton9223]

Just ordered one :) Thanks for the review

Thanks!

I bought that rim about 9 months ago, used it for a couple of months till i got the Ferrari f1 rim and it shits all over the other rim, more buttons and the encoders make it so much better than the other rim by a long shot, haven't even looked at the other rim, you will eventually get one i'm sure, so best of luck with the wheel mate👍🙂

[@projectj_r6289]

I enjoy it. The buttons part is the only downfall. Thanks man.

[@EvandroEndurance]

@@projectj_r6289 I’m the opposite I chose the f1 Ferrari rim first , but the shifters , build quality , flex and loose buttons made it awful after long use . So I’ve got this rim coming tomorrow so I’m just having a browse of reviews for it . Cheers man !

[@projectj_r6289]

@@EvandroEndurance Thanks for the info. I was scared about that. The rim is still amazing after a few months now. Hope you enjoy it too.

[@lancetaylor6647]

How do you record as finding it hard with the twist knob. Also what gloves do you recomened

[@projectj_r6289]

I use the twist knob yes. I just got used to it. And I use mountain bike gloves. It's affordable and feels good.

[@sir_micho]

Thanks for the review. I'm thinking about getting this rim. I have two concerns - I'm driving on vr will this wheel make any difference than the base t300 rs? I don't see it while playing on vr so the looks are not that important. Does it feel any different? FFB works differently? The other thing is the switch button on the bottom right side. I don't have it on my base wheel. How does it work? What functions did you bind there for ACC? Thanks

[@projectj_r6289]

Not a problem. The wheel feels more beefy and you feel more confident if I can say that. The FFB works exactly the same because FFB is dependent on the base of the wheel. The rotating switch I assigned as a pause button but it has 3 functions so you can assign other stuff like brake bias or TC.

[@sir_micho]

@@projectj_r6289 Thank you. Might get one.

[@projectj_r6289]

@@sir_micho You won't regret it. Just wear gloves because the alcantara grips isn't the best.

[@oskardzi812]

Does it work with the thrusmaster tmx ffb racing ?

[@projectj_r6289]

Unfortunately not. As far as I know, that model wheel doesn't have a detachable rim.

[@greghumphrey1]

How is the wheel rusted?

[@projectj_r6289]

Haha it was sweat from my hands. But I did get gloves now.

[@projectj_r6289]

Thanks!!!

[@BigRascal]

BRO WHY IS YOUR FERRARI RIM RUSTING 💀💀💀 I’ve never seen that before lmao

[@sewshi5676]

Does this wheel work with a specific base or can it work with different brands?

[@timscholtenn]

Trustmaster only

[@projectj_r6289]

Yes, what Tim said, only Thrustmaster bases.

[@boerekool635]

can you fit this wheel also on the t150 base?

[@projectj_r6289]

Unfortunately not. T150 is a fixed rim.

[@doffer98]

What wheelbases can it fit on

[@doffer98]

And is there some other wheels I can buy for a t150

[@projectj_r6289]

@@doffer98 It can fit on the T300, TX, TS-XW and T-GT. Probably the T500 I assume as well.
