    Yea, my T500 had a firmware error right off but tech support was quick to help. The G27 is a good wheel and a very good value, but the T500 wheel is noticeably better. For the odd chance of a problem and maybe poor service the T500 is still worth it. rF2 deserves the T500.

    As for the pedals with the T500 they are of good construction but with poor feel as the resistance is weak. Anyone have any luck finding a load cell for these pedals that is actually in stock?

    I bought the ricotech load cell....very impressed by it. Very very different to non load cell pedals but a lot more life-like

    I've had a T500 and now own the TX wheel. Both great wheels and I've had no issues. with either. Had a G27 prior and as others have stated, night and day difference. I managed to get a set of T500 pedals for my TX so all good.
