ABSTRACT:
In order to attach a tire mat to the circumference of a tired wheel, a front flexible elongate member is slidingly passed through attachment fittings on the mat spaced around the periphery of the front side of the wheel, and a rear flexible elongate member is slidingly passed through attachment fittings on the mat spaced around the periphery of the rear side of the wheel. Respective sliding attachment members are then used to attach parts of each elongate member together so as to enable relative sliding movement between the parts and so as to cause the elongate member to form an intermediate loop portion which extends through the attachment fittings on the associated side of the wheel and a further portion outside the loop portion. The further portion of the rear elongate member is passed across the circumference of the wheel to the front side of the wheel by way of a guide piece, and finally a tensioning device is connected at the front side of the wheel to the further portions of both elongate members and operated so as to tension the loop portions of both elongate members to draw the attachment fittings radially inwardly of the wheel and to thereby secure the mat firmly on the circumference of the wheel.
