    At this pricepoint you can only get what kola has suggested and some others. I personally like logitech gt but thats way out of your budget.

    Logitech G27 is the best if you can afford it now. For your budget, you can get a starter wheel. Here's some:

    1) ThrustMaster Ferrari Universal Challenge 5 in 1 Racing Wheel - Rs.2000 (letsbuy with coupon codes), 2500+ on other shopping carts
    2) Nitho Drive Pro Wheel - Rs.1700
    3) Genius Twin Wheel F1 - Rs.1700
    4) Genius Speedwheel 5 Pro - Rs.2500 (with coupon codes)
    5) Zebronics 500RW Gaming Wheel - Rs.1500
    6) Saitek R100 Gaming Wheel - Rs.1600
    7) Zebronics 1000GW Gaming Wheel - Rs.2300
    8) Genius Vibration Feedback Wheel - Rs.2600
    9) Saitek R440 Racing Wheel - Rs.2500
    10) Intec (sorry, not intex) Racing Wheel - Rs.2300
    11) Frontech Adventure Wheel - Rs.2400
    12) Gladiator Racing Wheel - Rs.1700
    13) Enter Racing Wheel - Rs.1600

    All the above mentioned models are available in India at online shopping sites or local stores...

    There was a fairly good wheel from logitech in sub 3k range. It was called "Logitech Formula Vibration Feedback Wheel" . Its not in production now, I think. Last time I saw one of these wheels was on a shopping cart for 2600rs. Its a good wheel for this price in my opinion if you can find one.

    Also someone was selling a Genius and Frontech used wheels on forum for less 1k. You can try those too

    If you have a smartphone with accelerometer, then you can make a 'home-made wireless steering wheel' at no extra cost with basic functions like steer left and right, accelerate and brake. Thats what I use now. Phone is N95...

    Just like you, I also badly need a gaming wheel. But I am waiting and saving money to get myself atleast a Logitech Driving Force GT (6K).. Buying a cheap wheel is no better than having no wheels at all!!!!!!

    lol, ok I will suggest him to get the Thrustmaster Universal 5 in 1 or the Saitek R440. If he can find a Logitech Formula vibration Feedback wheel, then its worth to extend budget by 200-300rs more

    You can search google for "letsbuy coupons". There are 2 types of coupons. Public and private. Public coupons are available online and can be redeemed multiple times by different people. Private coupons are only valid for a single use. Do a google search for latest coupons that are active now. I think one of them is "ICICILB" . For individual coupons, you can use the freecharge.in online recharge service to recharge your mobile phone and select letsbuy coupon as free gift. If you recharge your mobile for 500rs, then you will get a 500rs voucher for letsbuy which you can redeem for a minimum purchase of 2500. So you can buy the Thrustmaster wheel for about 2000rs if you apply coupon..Also they provide free shipping. Any doubts, pm me
