Yes, I have those settings in profiler. I can see why people like using the different steering ratio for different cars but it needs the feedback to be good enough to drive them intuitively - and for me its not really there so far.
Adjusting to 540° today which is going mostly ok, and trying to analyse the feedback from the game.
I think a large part of the issue is that the game isn't really giving much feedback for when the tyres are starting to regain grip after a slide, which would let you know to start straightening the steering/taking off opposite lock.
Because its not giving the feel to start unwinding as the car starts to grip, you have to do that reactively after it bites and so there is a much shorter time available to avoid overcorrection, which a faster steering ratio makes easier (though less precise I guess).
At the moment it feels like I'm forcing the wheel against the feedback to unwind lock early enough as the tyres start to bite.
I might try reducing the overall FF weighting so I'm using a lighter grip on the wheel to help feel the more subtle feedback if its there.

Setting the rotation in profiler rather than leaving it up to the game seems to have been a key thing for consistency, I'm feeling pretty good with it on 360° as a balance between response and precision for now, I'll try 540° another day.
The game still decided to override it a couple of times for some reason, not sure if it was when I changed cars/loaded car setups or when I changed some of the wheel settings in game. Just had to exit game and open it again from profiler, hopefully it was just while adjusting settings and will behave now.
I've also wrapped a rubber band around the top centre of the wheel for a marker as I found I was losing track of centre at times with more rotation, it seems to be helping. Not a problem I have with real cars even with a few armfuls of opposite lock, but I guess the G27 is still only about half the size of a real wheel so maybe thats part of it.

Thanks, I won't say no to some setups to try out. 
Thanks for the advice, I'll keep trying to adjust to it.
Its strange though that I can use the extra rotation in Dirt Rally (which is probably harder to control in general than LFS) but having so much trouble with it in LFS.

G27 setup help
Hi everyone, new here. Played a fair bit of a LFS a few years back then stopped gaming for a while and just getting back into it again.
I'm having some issues with finding a usable setup for my new (second hand but new to me) G27 in LFS.
As default it only had 180° rotation available, I found how to switch that setting on and off in another helpful LFS forum thread here: https://www.lfs.net/forum/thread/74394-g27-only-turns-90-degrees
However with full rotation its basically undrivable, especially when I want to slide around - its more or less impossible to get enough lock on quickly enough to catch a slide. If you use the old let go of the wheel technique it sometimes winds around fast enough, but doesn't balance at the right lock and overcorrects.
Changing the wheel rotation in the car setup doesn't seem to do anything, so my only options seem to be 180° or 900° using that button combination from the other thread unless I try changing the rotation in logitech profiler - but obviously I would have to exit the game to use different rotation for different cars.
I found a few old threads with suggested settings (setting profiler to 101% FF and spring + damper effects to zero) but it doesn't seem to have helped.
I don't think its a lack of driving ability because I can drift until the tyres pop on the 180° setting (they overheat a bit fast really...) and I don't have the same problem playing dirt rally with the G27 (often set to 540 or 720° rotation there) or sliding real cars around.
LFS is playable and fun if I leave it on 180°, but it just doesn't seem like thats making good use of what the wheel should be able to do, and it makes it harder to adjust to more steering lock in dirt rally again afterwards.
So, any suggestions, settings I might have missed etc?
