Just air it up a bit when you tow and tie it down the same as you do now and you should be fine. If you check a circle track supply shop you can usually find straps for towing that wrap over the tires. If you're rockin a detailed chassis this could be the hot ticket, avoids the potential for accidentilly scratching paint underneath. I know you can put towels or rags underneath you straps to avoid this but stuff happens sometimes... At least with me it seems,lol
