Tie Down Strap Locations?

TexasZed4MC · 11-25-2011, 04:15 PM

I have searched over and over again and can't find any answers. I have crawled under the car and can't find anything. I always transported my E30 M3 to and from all DE's and Auto-crosses. The M3 had 4 tie down hook locations around the 4 wheels on the main frame. Exactly what the car was designed for the car to use to hold to trailers for transport.

Does the Z4 M Coupe have any locations like these? OR if not what is the proper way to tie down the car to a transport trailer so I can carry the car too and from the track?

Thanks,
Steve

Remove the four jack pads and use T-hooks. The jack pads just pop off. This is the recommended way by BMW.
Using T-hooks is also the recommended way to pull the car onto a flatbed.

No.
Google search and you can find them. Even Northern Tool sells them.
