Default Trailer towing a S197

Where are good tie down points for the front end on an 05+ Mustang when trailing on a flatbed trailer. I sit kinda low (Eibach Pros). I will justgo around the rear axle, but the front I'm not sure about. Anyone done it before?

I use 2" wide ratchet belts around the front tires., and 1 ratchet belt around the rear end / axle..Be sure to retighten them after about 5 mi, and you'll be good to go.

Thanks, I'll probably run a couple of mesh straps thru the front wheels and pad the rim with a towel or something.

There are eye holes on the front of the frame.. You can just barely see them if you look through the front of the wheelwell.This is how we trailer my buddies S197...
