What is the weight of T300RS GT?

The Thrustmaster T300RS GT weighs approximately 5.5 pounds (2.5 kg) without the pedal set. The weight contributes to its stability during intense gaming sessions, providing a solid base that helps prevent the wheel from sliding during use.

A heavier wheel can often enhance the feeling of realism as it mimics the weight of actual car steering wheels, which in turn helps players feel more connected to in-game actions. It’s designed to be robust, allowing players to focus on their performance without having to adjust the wheel constantly.

For instance, if you're racing in a simulation where quick, reactive turns are crucial, the sturdy construction will contribute to a more realistic driving experience, making it a popular choice among serious racing enthusiasts. Furthermore, the weight distribution is beneficial for force feedback, allowing it to deliver realistic sensations effectively.

Pro tip: Ensure your racing setup can accommodate the weight, especially if you’re using a stand or a desk that needs to support the additional heft. Use a stable racing seat or stand to maximize the experience.

If you have limitations in space or portability requirements, the weight may be a consideration, as it may not be the best choice for users needing a more lightweight setup for transport.
