I have also been chasing some tubeless Defender rims for a series 1 project. I was advised that "F" in the size stamp means "Tube type" and "J" means tubeless. If you come across any 5.5 X 16J steel Land Rover Rims, please let me know. I hope that this info is of some help.
Many thanks.

I have been chasing AYG8038 wheels for ages for my 86" as well. No luck to date unfortunately. I have 2 (whic I run on the front), just need another 2 or 3... The AYG8038 rims are the same width as the series LWB rims (5.5") but have 0.5" less offset so increase the track by 0.5" each side. I run conventional 272309 LWB rims on the rear and they rub on the side of the tub at full axle articulation with 7.00R16 tyres.
