Tire saver for long term storage
I plan to leave my 2002 SC 430 sitting in an air-conditioned garage for six months in Florida… I am looking for an appropriate “Tire saver“ to preserve the round tire shape (brand new tires). Would appreciate any recommendations, suggestions and other worldly advice. Thanks, John Mc

The combination of a set of tire saver ramps plus over inflating the tires (not to any dangerous levels) while in siorage will help avoid flat spotting,
In some cases even if the tires do flat spot they will often return to round through little more than driving, but for long term storage it might be wise to take some precautions as you suggest.

Florida during the summer, Inflate tires 10psi over max spec on the sticker in drivers door jamb. Yes I am a tire fanatic, yes I have worked at 5 different tire stores.

Also, apply a tire protectant (both sides) or coating that can be found at some of the higher-end detailing supply shops.
