When we got our new dolly last month it came with 2 wheel straps matched to the 20" tires on our car. I would like to get a set that could serve as spares and be adjustable so I can tow other cars if needed.

Are the adjustable types good or should I avoid them? Looked at some of the websites that sell them but not really sure what would work best.

I use 4 adjustable blue straps rated at 3,800 lb each purchased from Cargo Control in line. They work well.

I have 2 sets of yellow adjustable straps and they work fine. I sure don't know of any reason not to use them.
