    The other question is, do you want to secure the load in the trailer, 
or just the wheels?

    I know some people like the idea of 1 to 3 tons of vehicle flopping 
around in their trailer... I do not.  I think it's insane, but to each his 
own.  I tie down the chassis, not just 100 pounds of wheels.  I have 
tied-down just the wheels a few times in a pinch ( someone else's car 
lacking anchors, etc ) and hated it.
