I think T150 is better option, only a big more expensive, but better in almost any way

270 deg no ffb = lol

The g29 still us the cheapest realistic option

Not a new news either: https://www.gtplanet.net/the-hori-rwa-is-the-newest-entry-to-the-budget-wheel-arena/ (2016)

I would never buy that, it looks like junk. Might as well pay the extra money and get a G29 or something.

C'mon man. The "Holidays" are coming. You should be able to find good deals on a wheel pretty soon. T150 or G29 are the two best budget options.

Sacrifice FFB for wireless, no clutch pedal, plastic pedals, crappy buttons, for something between a T80 and a between T150?

In the GT Sport specific case knowing Thrustmaster has "premium" support, doesn't seem a good deal.

Don't most people set their wheels so they require minimal input? Are there other wireless options that are better?

That will explain why Hori was one of the wheels in the Toyita survey, then...

There's a reason why there are no respectable wheels that are wireless...input lag. Just, no. Don't do it. Unless you enjoy flushing money down the toilet.

The PS3 used Bluetooth controllers and I didn't notice the lag.

I use 360 in F1 2019 and that feels just about perfect in those kinds of cars, I tried 270 and I didn’t like it that much. GTS doesn’t allow me to change steering ratio with the G29 but I think people with other brands can do it somehow.

Also stay away from wireless when it comes to pretty much everything related to gaming.

Nope.

Although this wheel is "low spec" it might be a good starter if on a tight budget and probably give more enjoyment than a controller.

I used the Thrustmaster Ferrari Cockpit years ago - wireless, no ffb (except for a bungee cord on the inside )and it was waaaay more fun than a controller. It also kept the family off my back as there were no power / USB cables lying all over the place. It ran off batteries but gave plenty of notice when it was getting low.

As to lag, an Alien might have noticed, but I as an average Joe didn't - or maybe I did and my reactions automatically compensated?

Having said all that the advice here that saving up a bit more for a T150 or G29 is pretty good.
