Looking for a Forza-ready, direct drive racing wheel for less? This $379 Moza bundle is astonishingly good value for Prime Day

Sometimes you find a Prime Day deal that’s so good, you perform a genuine double take. That was me this afternoon, when I spotted the Moza R5 bundle for $379 on the Moza storefront.

I mean, seriously? It’s our best budget direct drive racing wheel pick, sure. But it was pretty damn affordable to begin with, as direct drive bundles go. Now? It makes so much sense, I’m thinking of getting another one.

I reviewed the Moza R5 bundle back in 2024, and I gave it a score of 90%. I’ve used it regularly since then, and not once has it let me down. In fact, if I were to score it today, I would give it… 90%. That’s how much I like this particular wheel, wheelbase, and pedal combo.

You’ll want the extra Performance Kit, which provides a load-cell spring for the brake pedal for the very reasonable price of $29. Why Moza doesn’t include it from the off, I have no idea. But other than that, this bundle would make the perfect kit for anyone who wants to feel like they’re driving a real car with their gaming PC.

I’ve had mountains of fun with mine, and it still looks and feels as solid as it did the day I pulled it from the box. The feedback is superbly detailed, it makes no noise (the wheelbase outer casing acts as a very effective heatsink, negating the need for a fan), and it’s the best thing this side of something very expensive yet brilliant, like the Logitech G Pro Racing Wheel.

Actually, I lied when I said it made no noise. The magnetic paddle shifters have a wonderfully chunky “thonk” to them, which makes changing gear at speed a tactile delight. Honestly, I could go on and on about how much I like the R5 until I ran into my word limit, but I think I’ve probably said enough.

It’s brilliant, it’s extraordinarily well-priced over the Prime Day sales, and if you like a bit of Forza Horizon 6, you should absolutely consider one.

Or, if it’s still much too expensive for your liking, you should take a look at the $43 gaming controller that our Nick uses for the very same purpose. Me, I like a wheel. And this one? It’s downright fantastic.
