Hi Guys
I have a PS5 and started playing GT, I have tried with the normal controller but its not enjoyable and wanted some advice on what steering wheel should I get,
Logitech G29, G923? Any other brand?
 
I have no experience with any of these, but this is my 2 cents, as I was also on the fence about which one to get, if I were to choose between the 2 Logitech wheels.

Both the G29 and G923 are good options to start out your racing with. From doing some online research, apparently, the G923's pedals are better compared to those of the G29 but other than that, they should be very similar. The Force Feedback on the G923 is also improved over its predecessor.
You can also look at the Thrustmaster T300 RS GT as an alternative option, but it's generally around the R9k mark.

As an opinion and just my two cents, if I was looking for a wheel set at the moment, I'd start with a fairly inexpensive set. Maybe a good condition, used G29 (I've seen some going for R2500 - R4000) and then if you eventually get the hang of it and maybe feel like you'd like even more realism and immersion, then only start looking at direct-drive systems, something like the Gran Turismo DD Pro.

I would personally LOVE to get a full MOZA Racing set but believe they are PC only.

Solid advice. I'm at the Thrustmaster T300 RS GT stage. Start with the Logitech options before dumping cash.

Thank you.

From my understanding, it also takes some getting used to when transitioning from racing on a controller to racing on a wheel. My personal opinion is that ideally I wouldn't want to spend upwards of R35K+ on something I would potentially be bad at. Whereas if you start with something inexpensive, but also of good quality like the Logitech's are, if you happen to be bad in the beginning, it would not feel like a grudge purchase, due to the fact that you only spent ~R3k on it and not ~R35K on it.
