Default WTB: Racing wheel

I'm looking for a racing wheel for my computer...it has to be USB. If anyone has one that they'll sell, or know where I can buy a fairly cheap one, please tell me.

EDIT: I've decided I want at least force feedback, although I have heard great things about the MOMO by Logitech...

I have a Logitech Formula Force GP Review I never got too much use out of nor do I really think I'll use it much in the future. Do a little research on it and see what you think would be reasonable. I think it was $60 when I got it. It's in great shape. I think there's a small scuff or something on the pedals, but nothing else. I should have the original drivers disk, though I normally just get them from their site. Also, this wheel works great with a PS2 and Grand Turismo 3 Probably 4 as well, never tried it...

I have an xbox one that you could do a quick mod to be USB-compatible. I know which mod it is and what app you need to make it work-just say if your interested.

I thought about getting a Momo. I heard they are very nice, but I didn't want to spend quite that much on a wheel. Good call for me, as I normally resort to other steering methods.

MOMO is REALLY good. I loved it when I had a power supply. Asking for one for X-mass.....hay, I'm dispirit. Who says a grown man can't get Christmas presents eh? Got my brother in law a sandwich for Christmas.....hay that's what he said he wanted.....I think he meant it as a joke, but I dunno. He seamed to like it. Just didn't tell him its from subway....he hates that place...but any-who I think he owes me....

You know what I just realized? Santa Claws is a stalker! This about it...

He sees you when your sleeping, he knows when your awake, he knows if you've been bad or good so be good for goodness sake.....sounds like a stalker to me...

I have a Logitech MOMO I'm trying to get rid of - but to be fair the shipping costs from the UK would probably double the price of the thing. Bugger.
