I bought a set of snow tires and put them on the beginning of the winter. They're on my stock rims. since I'll only use them for about 4-5 months every year, and spring is around the corner, I'll have them in storage the rest of the year. I plan to keep them on the stock rims since I have 16's for the summer.



What should I do to them, if anything, before putting them away in the spring? Is there anything I can do to prevent cracking and dry rot? Should I leave them inflated? If so how much?



Any other tips?



Thanks guys!

 

what i have always done is put something under them (carpet, wood etc...) jus to keep the directly off the floor. i also deflate then to about 23-25 lbs to keep from cracking from the heat over the summer. thats what i do but its totally up to u on what u wanna do with them

 

Keep them covered with a tarp or something, or at least out of direct sun. Underinflate them enough so they will hold their shape but not go overpressure if it gets hod out. Keep them off the ground as mentioned above.

 

i wrap em individually in black trash bags, deflate em a little, and toss em in the shed



that is



when i actually had a shed
