Buying pxn v9 gen 2 as my first whell
Hey guys, I wanted your honest opinion about buying the PXN V9 Gen 2 as my first wheel.
Before saying “just buy a G29,” keep in mind that in my country the Logitech G29 is literally around twice the price of the PXN V9 Gen 2, so it’s a massive difference financially for me.
Right now I race on controller and I can already compete in things like iRacing F4 and LMU, which is why I’m trying to think logically about this. A lot of people say the PXN pedals are too soft, but honestly Xbox triggers are even softer and smaller, and I can already throttle/brake control fine on controller. That makes me feel like I could definitely adapt to the PXN pedals with some practice.
I know the wheel has no force feedback and I know it’s not on the same level as a G29 or T128, but I’m not expecting it to make me fast. I mainly want to improve, get smoother steering inputs, have better consistency, and of course I feel like it would still be way better than controller for immersion and overall driving feel.
I also know some people mention durability problems, so if I buy it I’m planning to take care of it and not abuse it...
So what do you guys think? Is it worth it as a first wheel considering the G29 costs double where I live
