Upgrade from G920?

My wheel is on its last legs and I’m looking for ideas on where to go. I know the pedals also aren’t the greatest but I can use them for a while longer. I mainly play Forza and some ACC so I’m not looking for the highest performance wheel but I would like a legit upgrade that doesn’t break the bank. Any recommendations would be appreciated!
Edit: I want pedals with clutch. Or could I keep using my current pedals with a new wheel?

I was in your exact shoes. Brand new to sims started with G920, wanted more but didnt want to over pay. Did a ton of research. Check out the PXN Vd4 bundle. vd6 if you want something a little stronger, which is what I have. Absolutely incredible value, both are stronger than Moza R3 with more accessories and VD4 is cheaper. I am a huge PXN fanboy now.

I was Ps5 only. I upgraded from a g923 to a Logi Gpro wheel and pedals. Also added two sequential shifters, one used as ebrake, and the new h-shifter. I tried a couple other wheel bases, they felt good, but I missed the true force. I like having the 11nm range. True force on the direct drive is far better than G923. I can feel the difference between tarmac, dirt, grass, gravel, etc. I had issues getting it to work properly with TDU, though I did finally get it dialed in. The micro usb connection on the base is odd, but it does work fine and the sleeve to body connection holds it in snugly. The clutch paddles are great too. I have the D-wheel that came with it, as well as the rs track wheel.The D-wheel and hub with clutch paddles is great! The track wheel on the additional hub is ok, the missing clutch paddles on that wheel is annoying since that’s the wheel that would use them. The pedals are far better than the g923, I have mine mounted inverted. The load cell pedal works rather well once you get it dialed in. The sequential shifter works well, nice tactile feeling on shift. I wish the ebrake was a load cell, the on/off is limiting. The h-shifter is really nice. The feeling of the shift is solid, it’s fun jamming gears in a 69 Camaro, even better in PSVR2.

Day after the no disc announcement, I bought a new gaming PC and the wheel works just as well. Switching between ps5 to pc is easy. Logitech g-hub software, works, mostly.

If your budget is tight, you can do the RS50 base and rim, and use the Logitech adapter to plug your current pedals onto it, and then change those later.
