We've used a steering wheel for at least the past 6 years. Any USB wheel should work pretty easily (almost all are plug-and-play compliant now). Just use the Windows Gamepad Utility to figure which axes and buttons are which.

If the wheel is non-USB, based on our experience, you're probably better off cutting up the wires and figuring out what maps to what if its an analog output, or going all the way back to the potentiometers if its a digital output.
