For a budget-friendly price, it brings a lot to the table and has really added to my gaming experience in ways I didn’t expect. Here’s my breakdown:Pros:1. Great Feel & Immersion: The SV450 may not have the advanced force feedback of pricier models, but it does a fantastic job creating an immersive experience. The vibration feedback is surprisingly effective and makes racing games feel far more engaging than a standard controller would.2. Easy Setup Across Consoles: I was pleasantly surprised by how easy it was to get this up and running on both my Xbox and Switch. It’s a plug-and-play device, so I didn’t have to waste time with complex settings.3. Realistic Steering & Shifting: The wheel itself has a nice grip, and the paddle shifters have a solid, satisfying click. It definitely brings a sense of realism to games, and I love the responsiveness. Although it’s not built for professional-level sensitivity, it’s perfect for the casual to semi-serious racer.4. Solid Pedals for the Price Point: The pedals, though basic, respond well and give just enough resistance to make braking and accelerating feel natural. They’re a bit light and sometimes slide on hard surfaces, but a non-slip mat fixed that quickly.5. Affordable Entry-Level Option: If you’re not ready to splurge on high-end gear but still want a racing wheel that enhances gameplay, this one is hard to beat for the cost.Cons:1. Limited Wheel Rotation: The SV450 has a 270-degree rotation instead of the full 900 degrees seen in premium models. For games that need precise control, like rally or sim racing, it takes some adjusting to get the right feel. It’s not a deal-breaker for me, but hardcore racing fans may notice the limitation.2. Pedals Lack Heaviness: The pedals, while functional, could definitely benefit from more weight or resistance. They’re not flimsy, but sometimes they can feel a little too light, especially if you’re accustomed to pedals with more realistic feedback.3. Mounting Stability: The wheel clamps work, but if you’re the type who makes quick, sharp turns, you might notice a bit of movement. A more secure mounting option would have been great, though it’s not a huge problem unless you’re really pushing the wheel to its limits.Final Verdict:The Subsonic Superdrive SV450 is a great entry-level racing wheel for anyone looking to up their gaming experience without spending a fortune. While it has a few minor issues—like limited rotation and slightly lightweight pedals—it still delivers a high level of enjoyment for casual racing fans. For the price, you’re getting a quality product with easy setup and cross-console compatibility.If you’re looking for ultra-realism or professional racing gear, you might want to consider a higher-end model, but for the average gamer or even intermediate racing enthusiast, the SV450 is an absolute winner. It’s brought so much fun to my gaming sessions, and I’d recommend it to anyone looking to add some excitement to their racing games.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great budget racing wheel

C.M. · 9 July 2021

I'm surprised by this, I thought it was going to be a bad device. It is great, works without any messing about with any real settings, plug and play with most games.Pros- Works on many devices, PC, Xbox One and Switch tested fine.- Flappy padel gearbox, works great, right size padels.- Lots of standard buttons on the wheel, makes it easier for menu navigation in games and to assign custom control.Cons- For me, this is my first racing wheel and it seems a little small, I am not sure if all wheels are the same, but for me it could do with being bigger.- Too sensitive. Even after going through the manual and apparently changing the settings, it is still too much, even changing game sensitivity. An issue with this sensitivity option change is the red LED stays on when the green LED is on, so you can barely see the flashing to tell what sensitivity you selected.- No vibration feedback on PCOverall a great device but needs some tweaks for me personally. I noticed another wheel by these guys with a proper shifter but cannot see it in stock anywhere :(

5.0 out of 5 stars Fantastic Steering Wheel for the Xbox One

R. · 14 December 2022

The lightweight wheel and pedals are very compact and easy to set up.There is no force feedback like on other wheels we have for the Xbox 360 and PS2, which have a mains adapter to plug in. This wheel connects via USB straight into the console.What it does offer is a versatility in games where you can get in and out of vehicles, such as Bus Simulator and I would imagine, the GTA games. Your Xbox controller plugs into the wheel which essentially becomes your left thumbstick, acceleration and braking. The controller allows you to look around.Works great with Mudrunner and Wreckfest. Also older games like Operation Flashpoint Dragon Rising and Red River, which use a driving simulator graphic engine, are great with this wheel and make hopping out of HUMVEES and going straight to foot patrols very immersive!The wheel is compatible with PS3 and Nintendo Switch.Great fun and very affordable.Also found that wired Xbox One controllers connect to the steering wheel, so if you find the supplied USB to Controller lead a bit short, the lead to a wired controller is a lot longer!

1.0 out of 5 stars I respect its cheap but does not work and it hurt my 4 year old.

This is my first steering wheel. It was very easy to set up. Feels sturdy and well made. There are customizable buttons, 270/900 steering switchable in game. Its also possible to program maximum turning degree. Three sensitivity settings for steering. Works well with my 5 driving games, although Gran Turismo Sport needed the sticks to be inverted in the game settings. It does take a little whilie to get used to. Each game is slightly different as far as sensitivity goes. All in all I am very pleased with the experience using a steering wheel and pedals instead of a regular controller.

3.0 out of 5 stars Feels like a toy unfortunately

Thought buying something not too cheap yet not too expensive as well. No complaints with Bolo but the product feels more like a toy. The build is fine specially the wheel, pedals can be better for the price. Unfortunately I sold it and got a full Logitech G923 setup. This is fine for extremely casual gaming not someone who loves and is enthusiastic about driving simulations and racing games.

5.0 out of 5 stars Works with Xbox series X

A. · 19 January 2025

Great little wheel and pedals. Works the the Xbox X. Great starter wheel. My Son 8 uses it for F1, Corsa, Roblox, etc. The only thing it the suction pads to hold the wheel down needs to be on something flat and like plastic or glass top. It's works good.

4.0 out of 5 stars It’s work and does not work in some stuff

C.a.f. · 31 May 2025

This steering wheel and pedal set turns racing into pure fun. It reacts fast which makes every lap exciting. I have to unplug it then plug it back in before my pc notices it Some games need me to mess with settings so everything runs right. The setup needs a strong grip or it works itself loose. Still, I can’tstop using it.

Volante per PS4

Sinceramente leggendo le recensioni ero un po' scettico e avevo paura che una volta arrivato e provato erano soldi buttati e invece tutt'altro: piccolo,comodo e portatile,la sensibilità si può regolare quindi ottimo,le ventose attaccano forse non su tutte le superfici ma non vanno per niente male come scrivono gli altri,i pedali sono leggeri e vanno bene anche loro rispondendo forse con circa mezzo secondo di ritardo ma ci può stare,per quanto riguarda il volante invece più o meno risponde come la levetta del controller quindi non ci sono tutti questi grossi problemi regolandoli appunto. Infine la connessione è stata molto veloce,semplice e immediata dunque non state a leggere le recensioni negative perché le altre persone pensavano che con 60 euro acquistavano un volante vero neanche da gioco...ovvio che è il più economico in circolazione ma il rapporto qualità prezzo è ottimo
