New tyres wouldn't help you in that shity water soaked clay and mud.
Actually, if my tyres were any good, and if I had have been paying a bit more attention, I wouldn't have got myself into that sloppy mess. By the end of the weekend I'd torn quite a few lugs off
Very US style of track, a few more granite boulders and it could be the Rubicon. Where abouts in the High country were you?

It's not the High Country which is way south in cold Victoria. It's 1600km north in New South Wales near the Queensland state border. It can be cold here and snows about once every 20 years but the weather was perfect over Easter between 15c to 27c. There are granite boulders and outcrops every where. In fact the region is called Granite Belt. https://www.google.com.au/maps/place...16074087?hl=en
Here's another shot doing a hill climb with a bit of air under the front end. It was very dry and dusty too...

Took Rubi off road today for the first time.
So happy with how it performed. There was a Pootrol with a front locker and a Navara.
All got stuck except Rubi......and didn't even use the diff locks.
Had to winch the Pootrol out twice. Other times we were able to snatch out.
Here are a couple of pics.......
