Thrustmaster Raceline Pedals LTE (bundled with T598-X)
Two-pedal Hall-sensor set that ships in the T598-X bundle and plugs into the wheel base.
The two-pedal Raceline LTE set bundled with the T598-X, with Hall-effect sensors and spring firmness adjustable in three notches. Accurate but basic; designed to take Thrustmaster's load cell brake kit as a third pedal later.

Pros and cons
- Hall-effect (H.E.A.R.T.) sensors don't wear or spike
- Adjustable spring firmness on each pedal
- Upgradeable with the Raceline load cell kit, which adds a third pedal
- Only two pedals: no clutch out of the box
- Position-based brake, not a load cell
Watch out: No clutch until you buy the load cell kit; plan that before buying an H-shifter.
What it feels like
- Stiffness
- Progression
- Damping
- Travel
- Noise
The brake is a travel-based pedal, so you learn where to stop by distance, not by pressure.
Light and easy for a first rig, but it lacks the firm resistance of a load cell.
Hall sensors should keep the response smooth and consistent over time.
Pressing a firm kitchen-scale spring: easy to move, with little resistance to push against.
What the Raceline Pedals LTE (T598-X) works with
- Comes in the box with the Thrustmaster T598-X (Xbox/PC); it isn't sold on its own.
- Plugs into the wheel base; there's no USB cable. It works on whatever platforms the base supports.

Our take
AI analysis of public information, not a hands-on review.
These pedals are the entry-level set packed with the Thrustmaster T598-X direct drive bundle, so they are a reason to buy the bundle, not a separate purchase. Based on the entry and Thrustmaster's usual design, they are a two-pedal (throttle and brake) set with contactless Hall-effect sensors. That means no potentiometer wear, and the readings should stay consistent over time. They connect to the wheel base, not directly to the console or PC, so they need no extra USB cable or power supply. That keeps the first setup simple.
The tradeoff is the brake. Pedals at this level usually use a travel-based brake with a spring or elastomer feel, not a load cell. That makes consistent braking harder to learn than with a pressure-sensing pedal. It's fine for casual and mid-level Xbox or PC racing, but a serious brake-focused driver will probably want an upgrade later. The entry flags a load cell upgrade as possible. We could not confirm which upgrade parts fit this set or what they cost, so check Thrustmaster's compatibility list before buying one. There is no clutch, so manual-with-clutch and some sim cars are out. Check that the pedal plate mounts to your cockpit or desk.
Questions buyers ask
Do these pedals plug into my Xbox or PC directly?
No. According to the entry they connect through the T598-X wheel base, so the base is the only link to the console or PC. Follow the base's setup guide.
Can I upgrade the brake to a load cell?
The entry says a load cell upgrade is possible. We could not verify which part fits this set, so check Thrustmaster's compatibility list before buying one.
Is there a clutch pedal?
No. It is a two-pedal set (throttle and brake). A clutch means a different pedal set, and you'd need to confirm it is compatible with the T598-X base.
