I like the look of the GT3 version, since I've never really got on well with the F1 style wheels, and the one that recesses into the wheel to lie flussh with the buttons is just perfection.
It sounds crazy to take it this far, but clearly there's demand! Acelith built a business around serving that need that's been going for years. Logitech wheels are absolutely EVERYWHERE
@@dannyleeracing I ordered one myself this because even though I would like to upgrade to a better wheel this is just cheaper for me being on a budget instead of spending $1k on an upgrade.
I would love you to check out the logikit, to upgrade the base logitech pedals, i got a set and from start to finish took around a full afternoon, it actually works, would love to see your opinion on it
I use a Logitech and I would say using gloves is a good idea if you're planning to do endurance races. I raced a dirt oval league for a while and due to the driving style I found that the wheel rubbed one the inside of my thumb kind of like a rope burn after a night of racing. So I started wearing a single glove on just that hand which solved my problem.
I've a big fan of the magnetic shifter mod. Got one as a stocking filler one Christmas and as 3D printed and I REALLY tighten them I've had to replace mine twice (again my own fault for over tightening) When without this mod having to use the stock shifter feels numb. To me this is one of the very few cheap mods for the G29/... wheels that is well worth the cost. As of now I've magnetic shifter mod, Truebrake, upgraded power supply. Not gone to whole wheel replacement but as a (relatively) low cost upgrade it's something I could ask for a Birthday/Christmas present without it being excessive. While going to a T300 or any DD would be more of an investment. For context: I'm in my 50s and play about once a week so not looking to spend loads on my setup but little upgrades that are casual budget friendly are nice.
@@Darren_Martin PS5 player. Moza or Cammas dont work. Also, as mentioned the mods were incremental presents. Also, what would I have used instead for the last 3 years or so. I’m happy with my setup. Works for me.
Tennis racket grips on the handles work great. I got a similar carbon fibre version from a guy in Scotland at Alien Sim Products which is worth checking out if shipping is an issue
I have a question. I already swapped my Logitech g29 with a deep dish wheel with a spacer. Is it possible for me to order an f1 wheel and easily swap it onto my already equipped spacer?
I'm not planning on upgrade from my G29 (due to budget reasons), so this seems like a pretty good and cheap "upgrade" since I mainly play iRacing and ACC
Thought I'd mention that the shipping costs is the same for a number of places anywhere to the UK now - I ordered a Fanatec R2R setup, and they removed the VAT from the cost. You pay import fees to UPS after they receive it + a £14 fee (I think). It appears to be a little cheaper than if VAT had been added.
That's true for Fanatec, just not true for Acelith for small orders. Not sure exactly what they have to do to send low value items across our border, but whatever it is they're not willing to do it
@@dannyleeracing Ahh Understood. Probably not worth their time I guess, there's a 22% export tax from Italy to pay for most items which probably adds up. Shame. Could be worse tho - they could be in Canada... now THAT is expensive!
I strongly recommend instead of investing in logitech upgrades, switching to a low-cost direct drive, such as moza, cammus. no matter how much you try to make modifications, it will be a gear motor with lag and 2nm of torque
You are talking about 400$ and up. People may have the Logitech already. Or they picked up a used one. You can't compare it. People have become snobs. They are not helping people they look down on them and telling them to spend hundreds and hundreds of dollars for some that may not be used much.
I have the original Acelith F1 style rim for my G920. Had it for over three years now and it's been a gamechanger.
Question ... Did you upgrade your G920 wheel or do you still have it?

Very nice, hopefully they make a telemetry display on their wheels one day.
Thanks very much for the video.
I just bought this because of your recommendation.
I would buy one but not for £125, so ill skip this one unfortunately
buy an actual wheel for $1200 then lmfao
@@reaperofdeath_ for that much might as well just sell the g29 and get a t300 rs

I was wondering "Who the hell would 'tune'" their Logitech GXX(X) series wheels... Oh, it's Dann, let's see :D

At this point you should have just bought a cheap DD setup. Moza R5 or Cammus C5

Dude, thank you so much for commenting that!
Hey Danny, would u reverend this sim rig over other Logitech sim rigs?
I have a question. I already swapped my Logitech g29 with a deep dish wheel with a spacer. Is it possible for me to order an f1 wheel and easily swap it onto my already equipped spacer?
Wonder what would the shipping to the U.S. cost?
Surely it would put the wheel over $100 used.
It looks good. I will wonder if there are mods for a T300RS GT?
Looks that way according to the site

Just had my wheel and gloves delivered. The promo code didn't work sadly but can't wait to get to try them
