Remark :
Due to limited stock availability, please notice that some XRAY items may have to order from the factory and the ready time is around 4-6 weeks. Customer purchases the item is assumed to accept the waiting time which allows us to order directly from the manufacturer if the item is out of our warehouse.

Which tyres work best with altered Ackermann settings?

Lower Ackermann often suits grippier tyres for faster turn-in, while higher Ackermann can stabilise loose-surface handling. Try small changes and run a few laps to compare tyre feedback.

Is special tooling needed to swap the plates?

No special tools are required. Basic hex drivers and a torque driver for consistent screw tightening are recommended to avoid overloading the mounting points.

Will these fit older XB8 models?

They are designed specifically for the XRAY XB8'19. Compatibility with earlier XB8 variants is not guaranteed, so check mounting dimensions before fitting.

How often should I check the mounting screws?

Inspect screws after the first few runs and then as part of your regular maintenance. Recheck torque after impacts to keep steering geometry consistent.
