This question may be silly, but I noticed that DEF model sells wheels meant for the US RSOV Defender vehicle by Hobby Boss. Does this wheel set fit the British versions too? I'm talking tire details, not just the physical fit.

I would say yes but only for the set DW35022.
The first pic shows a green vehicle with those tires.

I think the set DW35027 is only for american vehicles. You can see pics on "warwheels" website.

The RSOV wheel set looks like the Michelin XCL tread pattern. That would be appropriate for British Land Rover Defenders including the early WMIKs. Not appropriate for later Defender XD (usually incorrectly called Wolf).
