I used T-hooks to latch my tie downs to the frame of the Corvette. However, the Mini does not appear to have the same receptacles for securing the Mini to a car hauler.

Advice please.

I plan on having padded straps made that use the wheel spokes as the tie down point. My brother did this on his 911 Porsche and it worked great. Check out his link. http://www.macscustomtiedowns.com/

I would prefer not to do that as it "could" mess up the alignment. I know this because I have done it. :???:
