Well now I want to get you started because I'm running tubeless on an old tubed rim and have had no issues and have never read of anyone having any issues.Quote:

I was making a snide comment!
My old 130 did a few hundred thousand Kay’s throughout Cape York and the Gulf
Running tubeless on tubed rims. Normal dirt pressure of 25 front 30-50 rear and down to 15 for beach launching etc
Never had a problem
But some would say if you run a tubeless rim without tubes you will immediately roll your defender into a busload of haemophiliac nuns and babies?

Cheers. Needed a laugh :)
To help with the turning circle of my Defender I fitted King wheels Terra 0 offset steel rims from Bob Jane Tmart, $114 each. If you buy King rims also use their wheel nuts as the tapered is different to LR nuts. A great improvement in the turning circle. I can now safely do u turns!
And it was a lot cheaper than changing the offset of Wolf or Disco rims.
The 265/75 R 16 BFG KO2 tread just sits in the flare.
