[QUOTE="BigJ, post: 209802, member: 62"] I wonder how well those would hold up. You'd need 4, so that will help spread the load, but you're going to have a lot of strap in the air, between the loop and the tire edge. The kind of off roading we typically do out here has as much side to side throwing around as it has up and down. I'd be concerned that I'd never get the straps tight enough to hold the tire down strongly enough so that it doesn't end up moving side to side, and work its way out from under the straps. I know you said a rack isn't on the radar yet, but ask a couple of our vendors anyway. If you can't go the full route, I'd bet they can cost effectively build you a simple bar that mounts between two of the bed bolts, with a center post sticking up for ******** a big tire wing nut down to.
