We found that 550 paracord works quite well. We drove over it with both 6in omni-wheels and tration wheels with no problems. our alliance partners also drove over it with 8in mecanum wheels light it was not even there. For .3lb you get about 40ft of tether. paracord is also dirt cheap and comes in bright colors.
