Question:

My trailer has recessed D rings 46inch apart. I will be tying down a vehicle using 205-60R-15 tires and wheels. The question is will the hooks on this strap when spread over the tire and wheel reach my trailer D rings without using any type of extenders?

Expert Reply:

I'm going to recommend using the ProGrip Adjustable Wheel Net with Ratchet and Snap Hooks # 317-18900 as these adjustable straps are going to have the length necessary to fit your D-ring mounts that are set 46" apart. The wheel straps on these are also adjustable which will make fitting to your specific 205/60R15 tires much easier.

With the SmartStraps Ratcheting Wheel Net with Snap Hooks # 348851 not having an adjustable wheel strap it will not likely reach your D-rings mounts spread that far from your tires.
