not really. I bought 5 or 6 cheap and medium priced wheels to test and none of them were worth keeping IMHO. I'm faster and can play longer with my Gravis gamepad. There's plenty of PS2ish controllers like it available for $20-$30 at Best Buy. The only wheel to get is the Logitech Driving Force (something like that) for $100ish, but wheels just wear me out and are too involved for me. The biggest limiting factor with using dual sticks in LFS is that it takes some sacrifice in lock-to-lock steering in order to gain sensitivity. So if I get too sideways, it's not coming back. I can't really "drift" at any appriciable angle without losing sensitivity, and this game doesn't let you get away with being ham-fisted.
