I think a solution would be something like the PCSX2 does, the PS2 had support for the GT Force, Drive Force and Drive Force Pro. So the PCSX2 maps your wheel to whatever wheel the PS2 supported, including the ffb. I'm not a programmer, but for what I understand, it emulates the wheel.
I would not mind if RPCS3 would emulate a single wheel that is well supported by the PS3 like the Logitech G25/27, so we could bind our wheels to it.
It is how I play GT5 and GT6 on RPCS3, I bough the GIMX usb adapter sold on the GIMX store, loaded the G25/27 profile that they have with their free software, including various wheel profiles, and mapped my Fanatec GT DD wheel to it. RPCS3 sees a G25/27 wheel and I can play without a problem, just wish this was built into RPCS3.
I had previously the Thrustmaster T300RS that is supported by GT6, but could never get it to work with direct usb connection, always had to use GIMX. Unfortunately, the wheel had to be retired because some of the hardware was malfunctioning and I took this opportunity to upgrade. All this hardware that the PS3 supported at some point will break down and stop working, emulating this hardware is the way to go in the future.
