What's the best wheel for N4?

No matter what I do, I can't get any kind of decent control with my
Thrustmaster T2 wheel. I've tried every different linearity setting from
zero to 100, and I've tried every conceivable steering ratio. I think this
older wheel just doesn't have the quality I need. What is the best wheel to
use these days?

Thanks

My opinion, go with the TSW line of wheels.  Very precise.

Sorry to be so dumb, but what is the TSW wheel?

I'm still using an old T2 and find it very smooth in N4. I have my settings
about 90% linear. Also make sure you don't have a bad pot and ensure that your
game port is good. I've had several sound cards with very jittery game ports.
As touchy as N4 can be I bet with a bad pot or jittery game port it would be
undriveable.

I'm using an InterAct V4 wheel, with no problems.

JTRIV, were you racing the other night?
