[Spridgets] tire storage??

[Rick Fisk]

Ryan,

I wash the tire and wheel, reduce pressure to about 5 psi, put them in a trash bag, and use vacuum to remove as much air as possible.  Then I store them upright (not flat!) in a corner of my family room.  The room is quite large and my wife never knows they are there because they are behind her treadmill, which never gets used.  lol

This means not in my one car garage where I will need every square inch to work on the car. I looked online to find the best way to store tires and they all say not to store them outside and expose them to cold temperatures or sunlight.  But They would normally be exposed to that when they are on the car. These are not high performance race tires they are street tires. And I am only storing them till the spring (hopefully). I just don't want them getting destroyed by mice or other things.
