The smaller wheels have of course not been standardised on the 20/25, but there is no other reason that we know of why they should not be fitted. The smaller wheels will not, of course, have any effect on the lightness or otherwise of this customer's steering. Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} | ||
