Hi and welcome.
Someone else posted a similar question a while ago, but I can't find the thread. In the end (from memory) there were no members that could provide any personal experience. It really just came down to doing a Google search for Mac compatible wheels.

The best (and easiest) solution is to run Winders under Boot Camp. Then you can use any wheel you like.
Madness takes its toll. Please have exact change.

I see this is an old post, but with no answer, so here I go.
No, there isn't a wheel for Mac. Some PC wheels will work for steering, but you have to use an old kext (driver) to get FFB to work, and if you do that, you lose the ability for 900 degrees of rotation. So you have to choose between 900 degrees or FFB. And the pedals and shifter won't work.
What I did with my MacBook Pro was to install Windows 7 with Bootcamp, and run ETS2 under Windows where the G27 works perfectly with all features enabled.

I know you meant well, but since he only posted that one post, and it was back in May of last year at that, I kind of doubt he's gonna see it. Unless he's a lurker... Which I suppose is always possible.
