Summary

  • Upgrading to a new wheel may not always result in faster lap times but can significantly improve immersion and visibility.
  • Switching to a different wheel model can enhance car control and consistency, leading to more stable lap times over time.
  • Pedals upgrades might have a more significant impact on pace compared to switching wheels in some cases.
