Steering Wheel for PS5 Controller – Clip-On Racing Wheel Grip, Black ABS
Steering Wheel for PS5 Controller – Clip-On Racing Wheel Grip in Black ABS
This steering wheel for PS5 controller is a black ABS wheel frame that a PlayStation 5 controller clips into, so you can hold and turn the controller like a car's wheel in racing games. It has no electronics, no cable and no batteries. It is a shaped holder, made by a third party and not by Sony. Easy Life Markets sells it in black as a single wheel, without a controller.
Some racing games on the console can be steered by tilting the controller, using the motion sensors built into the pad. Held bare, a controller is a small thing to tilt accurately. Clipped into a wider wheel, the same movement becomes easier to judge, and it feels more like driving. That is all this accessory does, and for the right games it makes a real difference to the fun.

A Straight Answer on What It Is
- It is a holder, not a racing wheel. A true racing wheel is an electronic controller with its own sensors, a clamp for a desk, and usually pedals and force feedback. This product has none of those. It adds no functions to the controller.
- It relies on the game. Steering by tilting works only in games that offer motion-sensor steering in their settings. In a game without that option, the wheel is just a different way of holding the pad while you steer with the stick.
- It is a third-party accessory. It is not made, licensed or endorsed by Sony. PS5 and PlayStation are trademarks of Sony Interactive Entertainment, used here only to say which controller the wheel is made for.
- It fits the PS5 controller only. The supplier lists that one model. A PS4 controller is a different shape.
What the Supplier Does Not State
- Diameter and weight of the wheel
- Whether the controller's charging port and headset jack stay reachable while it is clipped in
- Whether it fits a controller with a silicone skin or extended grips fitted
If one of these matters to you, tell us and we will ask the supplier before you order.
How to Use It
- Take any skin or clip-on grip off the controller.
- Line the controller up with the cradle in the middle of the wheel, buttons facing you.
- Press it in evenly until it sits firmly. Do not force it at an angle.
- In the racing game's control settings, look for motion or tilt steering and switch it on.
- Hold the wheel at the sides, as you would in a car, and turn it to steer.
- Use the triggers and face buttons as normal for accelerating, braking and changing view. They stay within reach of your fingers and thumbs through the open centre.
To take the controller out, support the wheel and ease the pad out from the top edge. Do not lever it out by a stick or trigger.
Getting the Best from Tilt Steering
- Sit with your forearms free, not resting on your knees. Motion steering reads the angle of the pad, so you need room to turn.
- Start with gentle movements. Most people over-steer for the first few laps.
- Turn down the steering sensitivity in the game if the car twitches, and turn it up if you are turning the wheel a long way for small corners.
- Arcade-style racers suit this kind of wheel best. In serious simulations, stick steering or a full electronic wheel is more precise.
- Take a break now and then. Holding your arms up is more tiring than resting a pad in your lap.
Who It Suits
Younger players and families who enjoy arcade racing and kart games, anyone who finds tilt steering awkward with a bare controller, and gift buyers looking for a simple add-on for a console owner. It is a toy-like accessory, and we mean that kindly. It makes casual racing more physical and more sociable.
It is not the right buy for someone who wants realistic force feedback or pedals. They need an electronic wheel set.
Care
- Wipe it with a dry or slightly damp cloth.
- Keep it out of direct sun and away from heaters. ABS can warp with heat.
- Do not sit or stand on it.
- Take the controller out before charging it on a dock.
- Check the cradle for grit before clipping the controller in, so it does not scratch the pad.
