At that height im 99.9% certain youl be completely fine! The perks of being Dutch...well that and the Gabber partiesIn a desperate attempt to improve my performance on Gran Turismo I am contemplating buying a T598 and a Playseat Trophy.
I have never owned any sim racing equipment before. I was wondering, with the T598 wheelbase being as tall as it is and the Playseat Trophy wheel plate not being height adjustable, if this would create a (minor) visibility problem? I am relatively tall tho at 192 cm. So I guess I am asking whether anyone here has this equipment combination and how that is working out for you?
Did you update the firmware to 2.07 or newer? You’ll thank me once you do. Lots more settings unlocked from the stock build.So. I finally did the upgrade. For now I am very satisfied with T598. It is big step up from T300rs.
For now I am using my old T3pa pedals (since included ones doesn’t have a clutch pedal)
Does anyone got good ACC setting fir this wheel? GT7 works great but I can’t figure out ACC settings for this.
I came from the T150. NIGHT and DAY difference. You can feel so much more so you make fewer mistakes.Reading the latest comments....I'm both excited and dreadful of what it might be like if/when I go from my T150 workhorse to the T598. 😬
I've had my T300 for 10 years and it's been great. On the fence about getting the 598, is it that much different? Also have the T3pa pedals. I've heard the wheel feels cheap on the 598 so that's put me off a little.So. I finally did the upgrade. For now I am very satisfied with T598. It is big step up from T300rs.

Plenty of good Thrustmaster wheels to choose from now though. Thrustmaster Ferrari 488 GT3 a must imo. The Hyper Car rim is well is sensational although pretty expensive.I've had my T300 for 10 years and it's been great. On the fence about getting the 598, is it that much different?

I tried the T598 and it is not nearly as good as the Pro wheel. Just as you noted, it gets very hot and ultimately failed on me in less than two weeks. My G Pro has been rock solid, plus it does not overheat.I think if I decide to get rid of T598, I'll buy Logitech Pro wheel. I miss some real quality.
This is quite strange, I have had the wheel since launch and done long stints in rooms with temps much higher than 19° C and never lost force feedback. That’s using extreme settings on the base and usually level 10 FF in GT7.I switched from T300RS GT to T598 this week. The main reasons were I wanted to:
- Try DD - well, the DD is a significant step up over belt, no questions. It's much easier to catch a slide - most of them were impossible on T300.
- Get rid of overheating issue (and loosing FFB during the race) - damn it, I raced 1hour race on Gr4 yesterday, FFB in GT7 set to 5/1, recommended Thrustmaster settings for the GT7. The base got really hot and much of FFB strength faded away after around 50min. The room was around 19°C. I was hoping Thrustmaster learnt from the past but it doesn't seem to be the case. What a shame.
