Back in 2023, I discovered the irresistible gaming combo equivalent of chicken 'n' chips with a Coke—the Logitech G Pro Steering Wheel, a PS VR2 headset, and GT7. The TL;DR takeaway of my findings: it's a delicious union of expert peripheral craftsmanship, white knuckle force feedback, and heightened sense of there-ness I've been happily consuming on a daily basis. (Mostly because I'm addicted to Polyphony Digital's circadian mileage bonuses.)

Thickness-wise, it's a 35mm grip all the way around; the wheel also weighs in at 662 g (before being bolted into 758 gs worth of Hub).
