Wheels with tires securement, stacks of 8'10" wide Caterpillar wheels. 8'tall stacks. 29k lbs. Question, do you simply x-strap each stack with 2 straps, or do you add a 3rd strap going straight across each stack?

You say wheels with tires? As the tires mounted on the wheels and inflated? If so, I would use 3 straps.
Hauling just the bare tires I use 2 straps in a X shape, and make sure the strap lays down in between the outer lugs so they don’t move. But that’s just me. Hauled 3 loads of them from from Yokohama in Grove City, OH to a company in Bluefield, WV with no issues….
cke, lynchy, Isafarmboy and 10 others Thank this.
