I have seen a couple out there but what is your opinion of which PC Racing wheel is good to buy? Probably around $200 or so max. Looking to get one with a clutch and just feels good when driving? Thank you for you opinions!

"Good" and "$200" sort of limits options. I'd only suggest the Logitech G27 at that price range. I don't think Fanatec has anything around that price.

Well I saw some Thrustmaster for like $570 but Im thinking might be a bit much for a steering wheel.

I would think G27 on the low end.
W7 Pro 64, MSI X99A Godlike , I7-6850K, EVGA GTX 1080 Ti, G.Skill DDR4 3200MHz 32GB, Samsung 960 EVO 1TB M.2 and 850 EVO 1TB SATA, WD Velociraptor 1TB, Corsair AX1200W, Acer Predator X34 and Oculus.

While I like Thrustmaster for HOTAS I don't really like them for wheels. Fanatec is better IMHO.

I would suggest the G27 for a start, and the $199 is a good sale price. That is what I am currently using, it's good for what it is. I will say I don't like the shifter, it has screwed me on many races by not going in the selected gear ALOT! That or trying to get in reverse is very hard. You can put it in reverse ,but be darned if it shows R instead of any other gear. However I found the paddle shifters to work very well. I will hopefully add a Thrustmaster shifter, I like shifting so I hope this cures that. Just to be clear my G27 is pretty new with that issue. http://www.amazon.com/Thrustmaster-Add-On-Gearbox-Shifter-playstation-4/dp/B00MAXOTB6 Also if you don't know about Project C.A.R.S. you should check it out. Due to release in May HOPEFULLY! :)

The new DIRT is also available early access right now. It's supposed to be designed for wheels.
