Recommended Replacement Wheel Straps for the Thule T2 Classic for Fat Tire Wheels

Question

Question:

I see that you have replacement straps, but do you carry straps that would be a better fit for fat tires. The 11.5inch long stock straps are barely adequate for 3inch tires, so Im looking for straps longer than 11.5. Thanks. Thule T2 classic 9044

This strap measures 18 inches long is confirmed to fit the Thule T2 Classic Platform Bike # TH9044.

Are you using both the flat washer and the lock washer with the hitch bolt on the Kuat Transfer TS03G? The lock washer would prevent the bolt from backing out. That is unless the threads on either the bolt or the nut in the rack shank are damaged.…
