I did aggressive wheels and rims. I have a 3" lift but haven't had time to install. We towed with these wheels and rims to Maine and back last year. Tracked like a rocket and pulled like a dream.

yep so good and super prqctical beyond words..so bloody bonza to ya mate....having a lift and offroad tyres to match allows an owner to pass up far less campsites driving past...and hav3 more confidence to say to ones self..hell yes i can park right over there and get the best spot without dragging AS through hell
well done cobber

Those look amazing, but mate, before worrying about lift and tyres, you need to get that door fixed, someone has installed it on the wrong side of the AS.

So my son just got an Australian trailer....all the light switches are up for off and down for on???? He asked me why...I said that they are on the bottom of the earth, everything is upside down.

Great catch! How is it even possible? Is this a special Airstream destined for British Isles? Or a second door for easy access to the business side of the trailer?
