Do you just do the four wheels, or additional places also?

I've never done more than 4 points for what it's worth.

4 points are all you need. They do not have to be the wheels.

Yep, 4 points. I use the BMW factory tie down points on the frame. Don't know if P-cars come with these. Makes it really easy to secure and unload.

Rennline makes some model-specific tie-downs that mount to the frame, so you don't have to pull your front wheels out of alignment.

Depends on who or what you are tyingdkwn and for how long?

i've used both the front and rear rennline tiedowns. the rears are great, the fronts aren't as useful IMHO, especially if your car is lowered. because that center bolt protrudes down, it would not allow the low profile jack to fit under the jackpoint.
it also required crossing the straps from left to right and vice versa under the nose of the car. which was a feat of flexibility in an enclosed trailer.

I use similar tie-down hooks on the rear of my Cayman and hook into the chassis right behind the front wheels.

I also put a chain on my rear town hook and hook it to my trailer, and also leave the car hooked up to the winch with about a foot of slack in it, both as a failsafe in case everything goes wrong.

Friend of my completed about a four hour drive home from Watkins Glen and with about 10 minutes left in his drive his car shot out the back of his enclosed trailer. Over the course of the drive it had twisted out of the E-track. Lucky for him the racing Gods smiled on him and the car didn't hit anything and only needed some new wing endplates and a new lock on the trailer door.

I never use E-track to tie down my car - I only use the rings.

Wrists and ankles always suffice...

Last time I used straps with those ends I wondered how a car that looked just like mine ended up behind me... NG as far as i'm concernerd.

stilettos, mink coat, silk tie, handcuffs, satin ropes, all work fine and will do the trick for sure.
Macs Tie Downs are some of the best, if you want to keep your car from squirming around or moving, while you drag it............... might work well for certain types of "play", too! A bit bulky, tho......

Zip ties FTW.
