T598 Direct Axial Drive Sim Racing Bundle

The Thrustmaster T598 is a complete sim racing package built around a new Direct Axial Drive motor. It includes the wheel base, a detachable 30 cm sportscar rim with magnetic paddle shifters, a two-pedal metal set and a desk or cockpit clamping system. The bundle targets advanced sim racers and esports enthusiasts on PlayStation 5 and PC who want high-fidelity force feedback without assembling separate components.

Plug-and-Play Setup With Upgrade Path

Installation is straightforward: clamp the base to a desk or cockpit, attach the wheel rim and pedals, then connect to the console or PC. The magnetic paddle shifters and quick-release rim make initial assembly simple, while the Thrustmaster ecosystem compatibility allows adding a third pedal, handbrake or alternative rims later. Users should verify their rig or desk thickness suits the supplied clamp before mounting.

5 Nm Constant Torque With 100 % Overshoot

The Axial Flux motor delivers 5 Nm of constant torque and can overshoot by 100 % for brief effect spikes, providing ultra-low latency force feedback rated at 5 ms. This ceiling means the wheel cannot sustain the higher continuous torque levels found in larger direct-drive bases, so drivers who need stronger sustained forces for heavy vehicles or endurance sessions will hit the hardware limit. The 11.8 inch rim diameter also fixes the leverage feel, which cannot be changed without purchasing a different rim.
