Better than G27 alternative?

[spwath]

I have a logitech g27, its really nice, but quite bumpy and not smooth like a real car.

Are there any racing wheels that are nice and smooth, and you dont feel the bumps of the gears in the wheel and such?
I dont want to spend too much more than the g27, budget is like 300$ total, more if needed.

My TMX is $200 (way smoother than a G27 or G29) but if you have $300 to use I would recommend the step up from the TMX, that is the T300RS. It has belt driven force feedback, so it's the smoothest available. For comparison, my TMX has a mixed belt and gear system, and your G27 has helical gears.

 

Edit: TMX and T300RS are from Thrustmaster, sorry forgot to mention that.

OK, I might do that. The g27 can sell for like 250$ used, so I wouldn't have to spend too much.

Yes, but one side note, the T300RS only comes with a two pedal set and the stock paddles. So if you want a clutch and h-gate shifter, that'll run you an extra $250-$300 (for both the shifter and pedals, depending on which ones you get). But the pedals and shifter can't even be compared with the G27's, they are above and beyond, with progressive brake mods, sequential and 7-speed modes, etc.

OK, well right now I use the shifter but no clutch (im a cheater, can't do a full stick).

But I could upgrade in the future.

The shifter is the TH8A. It has a 7-speed with reverse, as well as a sequential mode (for rallying and stuff). Very nice product, all the internals are 100% metal, the thing is really solid. It costs around $150 on Amazon but you might be able to find it for a bit less. The pedal set varies from $100-$150, depending on if you get the T3PA or T3PA-Pro pedals. They both have gas, brake, and clutch and progressive springs and dampers on the brake, but the T3PA-Pro is constructed entirely out of metal (literally zero plastic) and the pedal orientation can be changed (F1 style or GT style).

Dang, the T300RS used to be like $300. But the TX is even better, and if you like the 458 rim then I would go for that. The TX is their mid-tier to high-end product, behind the T500RS.
