RDome set up

I know this has been talked about, but I can't find the info. We finally are putting up our RDome for the first time and it's going well. My question - what have people done with the netting that slides along the bottom in regards to the tire? I remember reading about people cutting the netting to make room for the step, but can't remember what was said about dealing with tire. I would appreciate any suggestions ASAP as we leave Saturday for a three week trip. Thank you!

Thanks for your reply, Todd. That's what we ended up doing. Another question: how many stakes do you use to stake the dome down? We went to Home Depot and bought 12 8-inch bolts and washers to use instead of the tent stakes provided.

I steak all of the steak points that I don't use as a door or open at anytime. I've been out in the middle of the night during a storm driving steaks in my bottoms only because I only steaked minimally. Now I drive all the steaks I can so I only have to drive minimal steaks if I am awoken by a storm. 

Thank you all for your responses! Our practice set up went great and we really think the Rdome will come in handy. One other question - how much wind has your RDome withstood?

Larry and Pat, up here north of 49 we have to use the bottom screening to keep out the mosquitos, black flies and deer flies. I'd never put up the dome without putting in the bottom screen. Make 2 sections out of the bottom screen. Make the cut between the wheel and door. You've got the door section down ok with the slit for the step. Now, make sure the 2 sections overlap between the wheel and door. Cut a slit vertical for the axle, this will be your short piece. Where the 2 pieces overlap between the door and wheel take a clothes pin and pin them together. With the 2 pieces it makes putting the bottom screen in a breeze. Don't cut off any excess screening just turn them into the dome to help make it a little more bug proof.
