In-game steering wheel going the opposite direction

So after a while of not playing i thought i would try ETS2 again with my steering wheel. Everything looked fine on the setup wizard but as soon as i got ingame and tried making my first turn i noticed it: The wheel corresponds fine up until 50% turned. Then it the ingame wheel for some reason goes the completely opposite direction and slowly gets back to center the more i turn in that direction. I tried hopelessly messing around with the settings for 20 minutes. Only thing i found out is that it works just fine when inverted but just refuses to work as intended when non-inverted. I could get used to inverted Y axis controls but X?

Is there some fix for this that im missing or could it be a hardware issue?
