Question:

I have a New Beetle convertable 2008 year and am wanting to haul it on a 16foot ft tandem trailer behind a Damon Intruder motor home which is 37.5 ft. In length. Im looking for tire straps that you place over the top of the tire with a strap coming out the side that can b hooked to the side rail or hook underneath the bed. The tire size needs to b 15 in.

We offer a range of wheel and axle tie-down straps for use when securing an auto to a deck trailer. You can see all such items using the link provided.

You can use a wheel strap if you wish, such as the adjustable Erickson # EM58522. RoadMaster also offers an adjustable version # RM-2150. Often it is preferred to instead use an axle strap rather than a wheel strap; such items include the Erickson Car Tie Down Kit # 08504-05 which has a safe working load limit of 3300-lbs. A set of two of these kits would have plenty of capacity to secure the Beetle's axles to your trailer for safe transport.
