[Swap] Swap my 5 18" Twisted wheels for your 16"s
I will include pictures of mine, they'd benefit from a refurb, due to two small scuffs and minor paint peel on a couple.

Tires are Toyo Open Country MT, in a nice 275/75/18. They're big but not stupid big. Ideally I'd like to swap for a more standard size as I tow some big heavy things and find these require a bit too much on the clutch with 3.5tonnes on the back for my liking.

Will consider another alloy wheel combo if theyre awesome Thumbs Up

I was running BFG 265/65/18s before but found they didnt give enough grip on wet fields (green ice!), so went for a more aggressive tyre. I want to go back to 16's for the choice/availability of tyres and to bring the final gearing back down a touch.

Unless someone here wants a set of nice MTs for their 18's ?

Pics on their way, currently 6 miles from the Land Rover and without pictures on the laptop.

I've got a set of 4 17" twisted design wheels if you fancy a swap plus some cash your way. There silver and need new tyres. I do have 8, another set of 4 in black that I'm running on my defender with toyo all terrains with a good amount of life left. I'd need some cash my way for all 8. i'm also in bucks.
