Against my better judgement, I've followed this advice from the AC forum and it's made a huge difference to FFB in AC. I've tweaked a couple of things to my own preference such as enhanced effects (kerb, slip etc all at 50%) and also lowered in-game FFB Gain to 50%, but below is copied from the AC forum.

Driver settings for T500RS:
Overall Strength = 60%
Constant = 100%
Periodic = 100%
Spring = 0%
Damping = 65% (affects only when car is travelling under 3 kph and stand still.)
[x] ...by the game
Too high Overall Strenght makes the wheel start to clip in the hardware side of things, which is not good. 62% is the highest you should ever go. Too much damping makes the stand still tyre friction (only way to make damping affect in AC is for you to turn on values under FF_experimental in assetto_corsa.ini.) feel notchy. 50-75% and you still have a nice weighty feel while car is not moving.
In-game controller menu:
FFB Gain = 85% (that is the best gain value I got, by checking with multiple cars using Atle's clipping doodad. Gives nice hefty FFB without clipping issues.)
Filter = 0
Minimum Forces = 2% (minimum Force shouldn't be raised above 3%, it's pretty much exactly the T500 internal resistance, forces under 2-3% overall strength gets lost in translation basically)
Rest of the Values = 0 (Kerb, Road, Slip)
Car Specific:
FFB multiplier = 100% (while on track, Numpad + and - keys to adjust.)
In case some car I didn't happen to try, starts to look like its clipping or you like lighter FFB, feel free to experiment or just adjust from the Car Specific FFB while on track (Numpad + and - keys).
Gyroscopic forces:
Last but not least, I recommend using the new FF_experimental feature called Gyro.
Gyroscopic forces are turned on in the physics engine level, but this is meant for strong direct drive wheels since they tend to want to oscelate more, but as stated above, in some cars even with T500 it is beneficial.
As default this is turned off.
More about this in the future, in case more info comes to light and potential reason why it shouldn't be turned on for the likes of T500. I havent found any drawbacks as of yet.
How to turn it on? You can find this in:
//assettocorsa/system/cfg/assetto_corsa.ini
[FF_EXPERIMENTAL]
ENABLE_GYRO=0
Change the 0 (zero) into 1 (one), so it looks like this:
[FF_EXPERIMENTAL]
ENABLE_GYRO=1
Save the file, close it, and you're done.
