PC compatibility refers to Windows compatibility, so there will be a separate listing for macOS compatible wheels. Thus, the only time "PC" will be listed is if the wheel is PC-exclusive.
The console that each wheel is natively compatible with will be listed, but keep in mind that every wheel is compatible with PC. Plus, Amazon is probably currently having a sale on almost every racing wheel they carry anyway. But as many veteran sim racers will tell you, you might be able to find a new or used wheel for significantly cheaper than its retail price on eBay, AliExpress, and/or Amazon. The ranges are based on retail price range, to keep things consistent and to prevent confusion. However, considerably older wheels that are no longer produced and/or those that have been replaced by a successor, such as the Thrustmaster T100 or the Logitech G25, are not included. We’ve included all widely relevant wheels, from big and small manufacturers alike. There’s a wheel for every budget, so whether you’re a cost-conscious gamer or your pockets are deep enough for you to stand in, you’ll find something to enjoy.
