Up at Mt Field, Tas
Went out yesterday for a day trip with my Brother in the Brindabellas. He drove his little Wrangler and I was in Agnes.
We went in via Brindabella Road, then along Gentle Annie Trail and Webbs Ridge Trail etc. Had a look at Flea Creek, McIntyres Hut and Lowell's Flat campgrounds.
Nice fun day out![]()

Landybitz hooked me up. Has an ebay store and also a member here i see. I researched pretty hard on rims and had some dealer cash to spend due to wrong wheels delivered with the vehicle. These are the lightest and strongest rims you can get for the defender. They clean easy and there are heaps of them on defenders including comp cars in the UK so they should do everything i need and more.
-11mm offset on the wider 265 tyre has the inside edge of the tyre about 7mm further outboard than the standard so they wont rub on the insides and even help turning circle with some adjustment on the stops. Outer stance is a full 37mm wider each side but the still run inside the guards so they dont spray the truck sides.
Each rim weights 10.4kg and can take 1400kg. Bit of stuff on this forum on ZU wheels, alloys v steelies etc. So they can go on a 130 no probs.
Alloy V Steel rims.
PM me if you want any more details. Im a defender / landy newbie but reading the shyte of of this website and others to get up to speed.
Rovercraft and others stock them as well if you want to shop around.
