A magnet for protecting a vehicle tire from metallic debris is suspended from a web having an upper portion, an intermediate portion and a lower portion. The upper portion of this web is fixed to the vehicle with the intermediate portion of the web hanging in a vertical planar relationship facing the forward treaded surface of the tire. The magnet is at least approximately as wide as the treaded surface of the tire. The foward portion of the magnet is hinged to the lower portion of the web and rotation of the magnet about the hinge is restricted to a preselected maximum angle below horizontal.
