how to tie down crossfire

Just bought an 05 xfire with 3000 miles and am planning on towing it home on my trailer.
I see one tie down hook in the rear, what can i tie my straps to on the front? Thanks

if you have ratchet straps, at least 2" straps, I wrap thru the wheel spokes in the front, and the hook on the rear.....

the hook on the err is not for tiedown. if you don't have j hooks to use in the transport slots located in front of the wheels in the frame then use ratchet straps thru the wheels on all 4 corners.
