Default Which Wheels do you think ?

These :-



Or these :-



£80 off Ebay for a set of 5

Really want to get into the off roading scene ....... The Landy has only been a 'work in progress' for the last 10 years or so , No Road tax to pay either .

I had painted (by hand ) the whole of the Landy and then gave up when I had one wheel arch left ........ Adds to the character of a Landy though

It's fine. Really. You would hardly know if you hadn't said.

Where did you get the moss green camo paint from?

Army Surplus.

On a serious note your fleabay wheels will be the best for not getting dinged by rocks etc as their rims are set well in from the sidewalls.

I love Landys. I had an old 88" Series 3 Safari.
