Ok so I got a extra set of tires I from when I sold my ranger to get my civic. I took my nice tires off the rims of my truck and threw some bald ones on my truck before I sold it.

Anyway I want to know the proper way to store theses tires. Im gona hang onto them for a year or so and then when the tires on my dads truck need replacing i will have a good set.

Ive read about storing tire online but most of the instructions seem to before tires that are on a rim.

any help would be great

Thanks

 

I don't know of any way to store them to extend their life. I think you'll just have to decide when the time comes if they're still usable.

 

Black plastic bags with something to absorb moisture (silica packets are a good example). Make sure to keep them in an area that doesn't see extreme temperatures, and they should be fine.

 

ok so bags and sillica cool should i clean them any special way or stack them flat or up right?

 

If you stack them, make sure you have like thick cardboard in between, especially if your tires/wheels are stretched.

 

I would stack them sidewall to sidewall, as sitting them on the tread may cause them to generate a flat spot.

 

all right thanks a ton everyone

 

All of the above advice was right on the money, but here's some more information from our website;

Here and here

 

good ideas! agree

 

i just put them on top of each other with a garbage bag in between, but they are mounted on the wheels though
