Soft lock vs set steering angle. PS4

[MLT24 0]

Up until last night I had wheel set to full turn angle and using soft lock. Then I turned lock off and set wheel around 540, experimented with a little higher.  Wow it made this game sooo much easier for me. With game controlling wheel lock it was still great ffb but effects on wheel where at a much wider range, creating more havoc. FFB with one angle controlled by my wheel is still great but a lot more predictable and I can run 40% faster. Any of u tried both?  What u think?
