A lot of people think what we do to our cars is insane i agree with the quote it mightn't be what i like but they like it.

We used to be able to get snow tread tyres over here but because not many people use 13 inch rims anymore they may be harder to get but you could always try some 14's or Peugeot 15's. I have seen them with irrigator tyres on the brumby/MV1800 they look identical to tractor tyres except smaller although apparently they don't work well on the front!
87 targa brumby (Neglected),
92 targa brumby (weekend runabout),
97 Lifted Outback (Dailey drive),
05 outback safety (Too cheap to pass up),
90 model liberty (was to be scrapped instead sold to workmate)
+ others.

what you might want to do is get friendly with a local rally driver and steal a set of his dry weather tyres not exactly legal for the road but fun

and make sure he uses 13" or as Tex suggested "find" some Pug rims of the correct size

There's not much on that Brumby.
it only needs to have both side mirrors the inside becomes optional then you can take it out

Gotta Love a good B&S ute. Now all it needs is a few RM Williams mudflaps and a flag on the UHF.
