In a former job, I actually used to sell zip ties. There are several different grades of them out there & many are really cheap (like the ones that come in a jar from Home Depot or the like). If you’re still interested in trying it out, look for ties from a local electrical specialty store. Brand names like Tyton, Catamount or Panduit are usually quite good and will not (should not) blow out when used like this. You should be able to find them online for $10 or less for a bag of 100 in the 8″ length, 50 # tensile strength.

Studded tyres in action — nothing extreme, just getting there.
