You might be better off with the soft straps that go through the wheels than those if you don't have 4 good tie down points on the car itself. Due to suspension compression, any sprung point will move and or get slack in it, especially in the front under braking. Last thing you want is one of those cleats getting loose enough to come out on a bump.
Tying down a car is tricky. I've done it quite a number of times now, and I still double check it after a mile or two and almost always find a strap that has loosened in some manner.
Wheel tie downs are cool, but you have to be careful with them as well because if you winch on them to hard, you can mess up your alignment, or bend suspension bits....
