Thrustmaster's New Add On Wheels - Finally Available to All
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 11 сен 2024
- Thrustmaster has based their wheel on their eco system. This allows drivers to use a variety of different Thrustmaster products together with other parts of that eco system. It has also allowed for the freedom to use any wheel rim on any wheel base.
With the release of the TS-PC and the TS-XW each of these wheel bases came with wheel rims exclusive to those bases. Sim Racers have asked fro them to be available as part of the eco systems and now they are.
This video shows off the new and now sold separately Open Wheel add on from the TS-PC as well as the Competition Sparco 310 Mod from the TS-XW in their independent form.

that sparco wheel is NICE
TM needs to design a decent pedal set for all these new higher end belt driven wheel bases. People keep talking about them getting into the DD market but honestly there’s no reason, at least right now.
They should!
I use Fanatec Elite pedals from the start. Even bought a expensive adapter to use it on the PS4 but i now only race on the pc.
Of course there is a reason to get into DD. I don't understand what you mean? In saying that, the pedals that TM offer are the reason I went to fanatec from the start. They really need to up their game
they are coming out with a load cell set at the end of March.
Did you ever end up getting the tlcm pedals?
Great review as always, Shaun. Kinda agree on those Open Wheel Add-On button surround colours - although there ARE current F1 cars with crazier colours ;D But one thing few people seem to notice is that at least TM fixed a problem for PC users - the earlier rims didn't have Controller Numbers next to each button, I had to manually label them on my 599XX rim. They fixed this on the TS-PC rim (I think that's why the PC is in the title), but not the Sparco rim. Take care Shaun.
This is a good start but they need to release the 488 rim
Hi, Shaun! Thanks for this! :) All the best!
This is good news. For someone whose wife won’t let him spend 2 grand on Fanatec products, that Sparco wheel is the only wheel from TM that I feel as realistic as or at least closer to Fanatec wheels.
The only downside is, that the alcantara wears down quickly and makes it feel like a rubber rim.
Appreciate what you've got there brother. My wife and I have a perfect understanding of each other, and she respects my simracing passion. It's just that I will probably never have those 2 grand to spend on simulated racing. Life is a real bitch.
Nice you mentioned flex, I noticed flex with the t500 rim too especially when the whole wheelbase moves slitlyon the desk.
The Open Wheel rim looks like it should have a Fisher Price sticker on it.
I’m very grateful for what you do. Keep up the good work!
This was a fantastic video. Great job keep it up!
Except they aren't available. I preordered the OW and it is nowhere in sight, a month after it was to be released. Emailed TM and the said they have no timetable for it to be available.
We need real size normal wheels with buttons, so many drifting guys modding their own wheels(and the you dont get buttons on it ..)
TM needs to get off their butt and build a direct drive base. They make such great consumer level rims... just need a nice 10-13nm direct drive, nothing crazy powered that would wreck their quick release system. eSports racing is becoming bigger and more popular, Fanatec knows this and has responded, its time for TM to do the same.
ForsytheGaming 100% agree with you 10 to 13nm is a good number
They need to make a good pedal set too. I am using an adapter to use my Fanatec CSR Elite pedals with my wheel because some racing games I play don't support seperate controllers
@methatswho760 Yes I am using a basherboards CPX adapter
I still want the TGT Rim for my TX wheel base.
Yeah even if it was just to use it for modding, imagine that with one of 3drap's carbon fiber wheelplates, like the F1/GT3 style or the DTM/GT3 style.
@@LupusAries I just want it for all the buttons , rotary encoders and two joysticks because some racing Sims and Euro Truck Simulator and American Truck Simulator has far more functions than my 599 Evo wheel can give me button wise.
I've got the TS XW Racer with the Sparco Wheel.... Comfy and dependable
Especially on Wreckfest Mr Cole....
only took us nearly 2 years of hounding thrustmaster, now we need to get them to get rid of their DIN cables that break if you unplug them once or twice then charge you crazy money to replace
I'd love to see a tspc wheel base only!
I'm seriously considering upgrading from my G920 to the Thrustmaster TS XW for my Xbox.
Do it. I did.
Once you do it you wont look back .I just got the TS-pc racer Ferrari 488 edition and its Amazing
I got both of these from Upshift Store in the UK, my TM Open arrived on release day and my P310 is due to arrive on 20th June, would defo recommend them 😀😀
Can't wait for my P310!!
At least you can take off the stickers on the Open Wheel. How much better is it then the Ferrari F1 wheel? Nice video.
Oh freaking finally! Always wanted the open wheel rim for my t300rs.
Sponge1310 I have the same
I got me the Shaun Cole add-on review. 😎
That is one fancy livestream!
Day late and a dollar short from Thurstmaster. I moved to Fanatec ecosystem because they took so long to offer their wheels for the other bases.
True i always had a logitech wheel but only recently got back into racing and looked at fanatec and the only reason i dont have one right now is they dont ship to south africa but my friend from america coming down soon so eft her so moola and then she ships to me. Fanatec has everything from low end middle end and top end direct drive and their eco system works the best! Prices is fair for what they offer.
Tar-damn-heels!
I still prefer my Sparco 33 13" or 33 cm wheel. But good show Shaun.
One question I have the Servo of the t300 and the point is that if I can put the wheel of the tgt
Amazon has 5 left in stock as of 3:27pm EST, 5/21.
My piggybank is getting anxiety attacks....
Is the T-GT rim also availible for the T300-base ( with funtional buttons and dails ?)
The T-GT is essentially the T500, and its rim is not available standalone (so that people are locked into the more expensive base).
@@RobstafarianThe t-gt would've been perfect as an add on wheel...
@@cyberneticxylem9614 I had to give up the idea of ever getting a sim rig, hence I only play racing sims which are friendly to gamepads. Newegg had a great deal on Assetto Corsa Competizione recently, which is great with my Dual Shock 4, and I just bought the DLC as part of Steam's Halloween sale.
I wanted the Rally wheel so I got that and the TS-PC Racer which comes with the Open Wheel by default.
Had Sparco wheel for a while, and have the magnetic mod on it. Changed the gear shift response completely. Have done same to 599xx wheel also. Recommend as its so easy.
Link please? I've modded my 599xx also to have additional buttons and a sli-pro.
Oddly I didn't like the TS-XW rim but love the Sparco rally rim. Not entirely sure why since they should be fairly similar but for whatever reason the rally wheel just feels a lot more solid to me.
That rally rim just feels amazing! Thought €200 was a bit much for an add-on but now the other options feel cheap.
According to the Thrustmaster shop, the 310 is only available somewhen in June. You can only preorder them in their shop at this point.
Be sure to update your wheel base firmware to use the latest wheels, I got the open wheel, did not work untill I updated to latest.
I want the ferrari 488 rim for my T-GT
I am waiting for your Podium Review!!
Hi Shaun! I'm very disappointed after I bought the Thrustmaster R383 and Open wheel add ons for my T300 wheel base. They both work absolutely fine on PC. I did update the software to the latest V31 firmware and tried both wheels on my old Playstation 3 console. According to Thrustmaster bots add on wheels are working on PS3 and I can confirm they work perfectly fine in the menu, but none of the games are recognising the button inputs and the paddles. I'm looking forward to buy Playstation 5 and to play all the PS4 games I missed (been 7 years away from sim racing) and I was wondering if PS4 is exactly the same case scenario in games. Have you tried these addon wheels on PS4 and which games?
I can't find either of these wheels in stock anywhere!
I pre-ordered the open wheel from ricmotech 2 months ago they just sent me an email saying it's in the assembly line. No body has it here in the states for some reason.
Will all screw on TM wheel rims fit on and work (compatible) with the TS-XW? I have an Ferrari 458, a TM 28 GT and t300rs? Are they compatible with TS-XW? Thanks.
Answer this.... Open wheel or Ferrari F1 wheel and why. Nothing anywhere comparing these two wheels
Hi there, I have a T300rs rim (PS4) and a TM Ferrari 458 rim (Xbox) and considering purchasing the TS-XW base for the Xbox only. Could I use my rims as per above on the TS-XW. The T300rs rim buttons will be different? Would the Ferrari 458 be compatible? It doesn't specify what the ecosystem actually means anywhere. Thanks.
Have the Ferrari wheel, Sparco Rally wheel and the F1 wheel. And now i want to replace the F1 rim with the open wheel option because the grip is nog great with the F1 rim.
I should just mod the F1 rim with Alcantara but i am so lazy 😂
They should sell all bases to. I would replace the t300 with another option.
@Bambeakz - Hi, I thoroughly agree with everything, you just said.
However, either I'm greedier than you or probably it's just 'cause I'm always looking for bargains; but along with the original TX base wheel (Ferrari 458), I have also ended up buying the same two extra wheels that you have...
AND... the Ferrari GT/E (£54) and the 599X Alcantara (£119).
The only one I really regret buying is the Ferrari F1 (£105), which along with poor grip, also remembering which button is which is nightmarish and with the fake knobs it looks far more like a toy than the Open-Wheel (although the push/pull gearshift is great and the dials for the D-pad is kinda cool, but again remembering which one's which & which direction is a pain). Plus it feels small (11"), which is the only thing that might put me off buying the Open-Wheel, although the grips on that do look bigger.
Although, I absolutely love the Sparco R383 rally wheel (£142), I mean, it just feels as though it came straight out of a real car; and 'cause it's big (13"+) and heavy (>2kg), which I think it helps the FFB. In fact the only thing which lets it down is the slightly 'dead feel' to the buttons that Shaun mentioned.
Will these wheels work on the t150?
no
does there excist Truck wheels for Thrusmaster wheels, for example the T300rs
Whats is the cheapest add on wheel for for ts-xw wheel base?
Great review
A p310 sparco without the Xbox buttons.. finally.
Took them like 2 years to do this though. Geez.
Hi... I have the T300 base, and the open wheel. When I set it up I screwed on the wheel and tightened the single screw. But now the screw is a fraction of center, and so is my driving position just a tad off center. What can I do? It's on my PS4. Thanks if you can help!!!!
Coupled with SRC no-solder converter this should/will surpass standard cheap combo for DD from fanatec. I'd get formula rim if it was better designed, but 310 is best all around.
Really? Thrustmaster wheels have barely any buttons or features and a terrible "quick release" compared to any of the Fanatec Clubsport wheels. You get what you pay for with Thrustmaster for sure, but the only fanatec wheel that Thrustmaster might surpass is the P1.
Does the t-gt rim work on any other base?
Can the TM open being used on a T150 base?
No because it doesent have the quick release system
Can you put this on t150?
No
I am very interested in purchasing a thrust master wheel for my Forza seven Xbox one. I’m not really keen on using the petals on the floor. Can you shift and speed up and do all that stuff by using just the steering wheel
You'll see as you get in to the hobby, but you'll need to use pedals as intended unless you want to modify your equipment with aftermarket hand controls. You can technically use the paddles as gas and brake but you'll soon realize that level of control is less than ideal.
Should i use gloves with the TM Open Wheel?
Not a fan of the lack of buttons on the Open Wheel. The only people that buy F1/LMP style rims are people that play ACC, iRacing, F1 games. Those games have loads of controls. If you're going to buy a Thrustmaster rim and plan to play something other than Forza, just get the Ferrari F1 rim.
What is the best setup you suggest for my ps3/ps4 all game compatible ?
I found the P310 to be quite a delusion. The wheel istself is great, buttons and paddles are a let down. Almost no movement from the first ones, very little feeling from the latter. I really hope TM will switch to something better in the upcoming future.
please fix that mic, I had to use captions. Thank you
hi , is the open wheel of ts pc racer, can work in the base of TS WX ?
Yes
Whenever they start to make direct drive wheel. Their wheel is worth to buy
Although I do like the 599EVO 30 wheel I have now. The thing that came with my TX was bloody awful and the rubber grips on the wheel rim that came with the TX was rubbing off on my hands after a while when my hands got sweaty along with the weird button layout , small size and odd shape to the rim. The 599 wheel rim is far far better.
Bros name is the simp it 💀
video looks blurry. maybe I'm wrong
TS-PC racer could easily come as base only - Open Wheel is too small for the power and not a very good quality either.
Wheel, rim, base, wheel rim, wheel base...the terminology here is confusing
Does it work on t300 rs?
Yes
I haven't done simracing in a long time, but looking at the tm stuff it does not look appealing to me due to the plastic threaded thing, bad idea, they should have updated it to a real wheel quick release mechanism instead. I might look more into more expensive options later, but for now new Mountainbike build is priority. For for sim gear the mass-produced stuff don't appeal to me, looks too weak, I need metal everywhere it makes sense, plastic is OK for switches or displays and stuff like that, but not a something mounted to a motor, bad idea, also fle and play can be caused by the plastic, its better to have real wheels.
can't hear you
Thats not a real P310 but a knockoff with Sparco logo slapped on.
Hence the "officially licensed replica". A real P310 on the TM Sparco wheel would probably cost at least 350 dollars. Besides, a real P310 would be pointless. If you're putting the same stresses on a sim racing wheel that the P310 needs to be rated for, you're doing something wrong.
