Wheel Nets

Wheel Net Tie Downs

Over-the-wheel tie-downs are important to stabilize and safely transport your vehicle on flatbed trailers or other types of car haulers. The strong industrial-grade polyester webbing offers maximum hauling strength and durability. It secures your vehicle with limited bounce and is abrasion- and shrink-resistant. Polyester also is highly resistant to UV radiation and repels water, keeping it strong and durable.

We offer several configurations depending on the tow system you use. Adjustable models are available to fit a variety of sizes, from standard 14”-17” tires or larger.

Side Mount Wheel Nets

We carry side mount wheel net systems with both dual and single straps for flatbeds and trailers with tie-down rails.

Dual Strap

These adjustable wheel nets have a cam buckle sewn into the front of the over-the-wheel strap, allowing for a snug fit on small or large tires. An extra cargo strap with ratchet provides a total of two securement points. Both straps attach to the horizontal strap of the tire net and are available with either flat hook or chain extension – or you can opt for a custom end fitting for your application. The pair also allows for maximum securement when tensioning the assembly to a trailer’s side/rub rail.

Single Strap

For these side mount car tie downs, simply thread the loose end of the strap through a heavy-duty ring on the opposite side to create a lasso loop around the top of the tire. You can then feed the loose end into a ratchet, tension the assembly to secure, and attach to your trailer using a flat hook or chain extension. These side mount auto tie-downs are often referred to as Y straps because of their shape once installed.

Learn how to create the lasso loop below:

Adjustable Wheel Nets

Adjustable wheel nets help you achieve a precise fit on both small and large tires with the same net. The design lets you easily tighten the strap around the tire to ensure secure positioning.

Available in both side-mount and wheel bonnet configurations.

E-Track Tire Straps

E-track wheel straps have spring E-track fittings on each end to connect into pre-installed E-track systems on your trailer.

If you don't have them already installed, we also carry E-track, E-track straps and fittings, and E-track fasteners.

Wheel Bonnet and Basket Straps

Designed for trailers with D-rings or punch holes, wheel bonnets come with a wide handle ratchet and either two flat snap hooks or three swivel hooks to make attachment quick, easy, and secure. 

Choosing a Strap

Aside from what you are hauling the vehicle on, tire size and vehicle weight are two of the most important components to consider when choosing a wheel net.

Tire Size

If you have a standard tire (with a rim measuring between 14-17"), take a look at our options for small to medium tires. For anything bigger, we also offer wheel nets appropriate for large tires (17"+ rim size).

To ensure the wheel net will fit your tire, measure your tire, then confirm the measurements provided for each product will fit around it. Not sure what exactly to measure? Check out our measuring guidelines!

Vehicle Weight

The combined working load limit (WLL) of the tie down straps you choose should meet or exceed the weight of the vehicle you are hauling. For most tie down applications, this should be all four tires.

We’ll be happy to assist you in choosing the right products for your car hauling application. If possible, be able to provide your vehicle’s weight and tire size, including tire width (across the tread) and height (from the ground to the top of the tire).
