It works very good , steers precisely and is nicely balanced. Time will tell about any tyre wear problems but I don't expect any. Possibly the rears could come down very slightly if the centres start to show signs of early wear - common with solid rear axle setup.

Adam Here since the start... Lifetime Members 10,282 Member For: 21y 11m 19d Gender: Male Location: Victoria Posted 21/07/03 05:32 AM Share Posted 21/07/03 05:32 AM All of the guys who have BA XR's at the dealer I bought my car from said to run 40PSI cold inflation pressure of course because with the 30 odd the sticker recommends their tyres are wearing badly and increasing it to 40 has made the tyres wear more evenly.
