Built with 2\" webbing, rust-resistant flat hooks, and a smooth D-ring, the set increases contact area around the tire to reduce friction and keep the strap positioned where you want it during loading and transit.\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow do these straps keep a wheel from slipping on a tow dolly?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Autofonder basket design wraps across the top of the tire and anchors on both sides, preventing a single strap from wandering off the tread.

The flat hooks lay flat and are easier to seat than some bent or S-style hooks, speeding up loading and unloading while keeping the strap from rotating off the anchor point.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eDrape strap over tire and engage two flat hooks on dolly frame\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSecure loose end with a ratchet or winch (ratchet\/winch not included)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eDesign helps prevent strap rotation and simplifies repeat use\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\nWho is this for\n\nThese Autofonder basket straps suit tow-dolly owners, roadside repossession services, car transporters, and anyone who tows 14\"–17\" wheeled vehicles and wants a more secure wheel tie-down than a single strap. They are ideal when you need a durable, weather-resistant strap solution that reduces strap slip and improves load stability during local moves or short-distance towing.\n\u003csection class=\"product-faq-snippet\"\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFAQ\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"faq-item\"\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"faq-q\"\u003eQ: Do these straps fit 18-inch wheels?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"faq-a\"\u003eA: No. These Autofonder basket straps are designed for 14\"–17\" wheel diameters and may not seat properly on 18\" wheels.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"faq-item\"\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"faq-q\"\u003eQ: Are ratchets included with the straps?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"faq-a\"\u003eA: No. The straps include flat hooks and a D-ring; a ratchet or winch is required separately to tension the loose end.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/section\u003e","brand":"Autofonder","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55168323649879,"sku":"B08S75KL3Q","price":69.39,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1050\/1524\/7191\/files\/autofonder-front-packaging-tow-dolly-basket-straps.jpg?v=1790400015","url":"https:\/\/britishgarage.co.uk\/products\/autofonder-tow-dolly-basket-straps-2-pack-for-14-17-tires-2-heavy-duty-polyester-flat-hooks","provider":"British Garage","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
