Controller or steering wheel

[Presco]

So im planning to get this game in a few weeks and im wondering if I should play with a steering wheel or a controller. You see the thing is I don't have much space on my desk so the wheel would be right in front of the monitor and I wouldn't really like that. I've heard from lots of people though that a controller sucks or simply isn't as good as a steering wheel. Controllers are way more comfortable aswell but list me some pro's and cons

if you to drive the best times you need a wheel

I have both, a controller (PS5) and a wheel (Logitech G29). Most of the time I stick to the controller, just because I'm too lazy to set up my wheel-setup (I've got a racing chair lol). With the wheel I switch off ABS and traction control, with the controller I need to use both of them.

For singleplayer controller is enough, but if you want to be competitive online, you need to play with a wheel.

You can just put the wheel under your desk when you dont need it. No problem. Wheel is best

I just move my wheel to one side when not using it. Racing games are much much more immersive with a wheel and pedals, it's night and day. I hate controllers though, never use them as there is always something better whether mouse/keyboard, joystick or wheel.

Try to get a force feedback wheel as they are superb. Mine is a Driving Force GT and it is great, you can get them second hand on Ebay quite cheaply.

I don't have a wheel for fast driving or beating competition online, I have one because they are the best way to really experience car racing games.
