I'm assuming you're talking about InterAct's V3 wheel?  

With all the great racing releases just out for the Playstation, I bought
one a few weeks ago and, so far, I'm pretty happy.

It seems solidly built, and the steering has a nice, smooth, solid feel to
it.  The angle is actually adjustable, and while the whole lap thing might
look goofy if your friends walked in on you, it works quite fine.

I was also pleasantly surprised by the stability of the pedal console.
Mine sits on a smooth hardwood floor and it never slides around, even
under the most intense braking at Monaco.

My only niggling complaint in the placement of the cables, which is a
little awkward, and which must be carefully laid out to keep from getting
tangled around the pedal console and your own legs.

All in all, pretty good value for about the price of a game.
