- Reviewed in the United States on August 24, 2022You can't beat the price for this wheel and it does a decent job and has decent pressure sensitivity.
I bought this wheel specifically for Forza on my pc, since Forza is extremely picky about what controllers you use for some reason. It is not as good as my other more expensive racing wheel though, which of course didn't work with Forza.
Also unlike most other wheels, this one works really well with emulators like Laka OS and with Linux as well, mostly because it is technically a controller, not a wheel, which is just a technicality that makes it more compatible with most systems and doesn't actually affect the functioning.
My favorite thing about this wheel is the fact that you can plug an Xbox controller into it and use the Xbox controller with the pedals to play other games, like mech games and flight sims and control the thrust and reverse with your feet while using the Xbox controller for things like twist, yaw, roll and pitch.
It is extremely easy to set up on pc.
Just make sure you use an official Xbox controller(one with the Xbox labelled button on it), it will not work with non-Xbox controllers.
Hooking the Xbox controller to it isn't necessary on pc but does add the d-pad and 3 extra axis.
The suction cups are awful but for the price I can figure out some way to clamp it to my table.
The fact that it uses suction cups instead of a clamp does make it easier to move from one device to another though, so I can use it with my Chromebox as well.
All in all I m very happy with this purchase and very impressed with this racing wheel.
- Reviewed in the United States on October 8, 2024It has peddles, paddle shifts and a spring loaded steering wheel. Only downside is that make sure you have good surface or something to hold it down because it doesn't come with the clamps that it advertises. I used waits to hold It down. If you find the parts of the instructions you need it is easy to set up. It also comes with different steering sensitivity modes and if you find the right part of the instructions for that too it is also really easy. Great product.
- Reviewed in the United States on November 22, 2024extremely cheap plastic material prone to breaking. wheel only turns 90 degrees each side so very unrealistic. if you're a parent and want to buy a sim racing wheel for your child, don't buy this, save up for something better quality and actually entertaining instead of this.
- Reviewed in the United States on December 27, 2024Purchased for my 15 year old on an Xbox one. It works great for what he needed. (He plays forza) he does complain that the suction cups aren't great though.
- Reviewed in the United States on July 7, 2024This took second To hook up. Very easy to use and has great performance. The only negative is the section cups on the bottom of the steering wheel are not great and the pedals slide. But overall, those are very easy things to fix yourself.
- Reviewed in the United States on January 1, 2025I love this steering wheel but the only problem it has, is that it has about a inch of turn delay on both sides
- Reviewed in the United States on April 24, 2022I purchased 2 of them. Easily connected to both my PCs one being top of the line one a bit older. And my xbox one x. Plug and play. Mounting mechanisms are horrible so diy is a must for a great experience. I went to home depot and bought some materials to make a sim set up. Pedals are a bit small and its obviously all plastic. but it works as I expected. EVERY DRIVING GAME IS NOW MORE ENJOYABLE!! 10/10 reccomend for a budget set up pc or xbox.

Fantastic Value with Some Small Drawbacks – Perfect for Casual Racing Fans!
I was on the hunt for an affordable racing wheel compatible with my Xbox Series X and Nintendo Switch, and the Subsonic Superdrive SV450 turned out to be an excellent choice! For a budget-friendly price, it brings a lot to the table and has really added to my gaming experience in ways I didn’t expect. Here’s my breakdown:
Pros:
1. Great Feel & Immersion: The SV450 may not have the advanced force feedback of pricier models, but it does a fantastic job creating an immersive experience. The vibration feedback is surprisingly effective and makes racing games feel far more engaging than a standard controller would.
2. Easy Setup Across Consoles: I was pleasantly surprised by how easy it was to get this up and running on both my Xbox and Switch. It’s a plug-and-play device, so I didn’t have to waste time with complex settings.
3. Realistic Steering & Shifting: The wheel itself has a nice grip, and the paddle shifters have a solid, satisfying click. It definitely brings a sense of realism to games, and I love the responsiveness. Although it’s not built for professional-level sensitivity, it’s perfect for the casual to semi-serious racer.
4. Solid Pedals for the Price Point: The pedals, though basic, respond well and give just enough resistance to make braking and accelerating feel natural. They’re a bit light and sometimes slide on hard surfaces, but a non-slip mat fixed that quickly.
5. Affordable Entry-Level Option: If you’re not ready to splurge on high-end gear but still want a racing wheel that enhances gameplay, this one is hard to beat for the cost.
Cons:
1. Limited Wheel Rotation: The SV450 has a 270-degree rotation instead of the full 900 degrees seen in premium models. For games that need precise control, like rally or sim racing, it takes some adjusting to get the right feel. It’s not a deal-breaker for me, but hardcore racing fans may notice the limitation.
2. Pedals Lack Heaviness: The pedals, while functional, could definitely benefit from more weight or resistance. They’re not flimsy, but sometimes they can feel a little too light, especially if you’re accustomed to pedals with more realistic feedback.
3. Mounting Stability: The wheel clamps work, but if you’re the type who makes quick, sharp turns, you might notice a bit of movement. A more secure mounting option would have been great, though it’s not a huge problem unless you’re really pushing the wheel to its limits.
Final Verdict:
The Subsonic Superdrive SV450 is a great entry-level racing wheel for anyone looking to up their gaming experience without spending a fortune. While it has a few minor issues—like limited rotation and slightly lightweight pedals—it still delivers a high level of enjoyment for casual racing fans. For the price, you’re getting a quality product with easy setup and cross-console compatibility.
If you’re looking for ultra-realism or professional racing gear, you might want to consider a higher-end model, but for the average gamer or even intermediate racing enthusiast, the SV450 is an absolute winner. It’s brought so much fun to my gaming sessions, and I’d recommend it to anyone looking to add some excitement to their racing games.
