4.2 Tire Storage Recommendations
When storing the vehicle for periods longer than one month, tires should be protected against environmental effects such as sunlight, high heat,
ozone and other potentially damaging conditions.
• Store the vehicle such that all weight is removed from the tires.
If vehicle weight cannot be removed, unload the vehicle to
minimize the weight. Maintain the recommended tire inflation
pressure, including the spare. The surface where parked/stored
should be firm, reasonably level, well drained and clean. Vehicle
should be moved every three (3) months so the tire flex area
is changed.
• Store in an area with temperate ambient conditions
(mild temperatures, shaded or dark).
• Store tires raised off a storage area's floor surface to
minimize exposure to moisture or damage.
Returning Tires from Storage Back to Service
Before placing stored tires back into service, a tire service professional should conduct a visual and tactile inspection to be sure each tire is
clean, dry, free of foreign objects, and/or does not show signs of damage.
• Avoid contact with petroleum-based products and/or other
volatile solvents or substances.
• Store away from electric motors, battery chargers, generators,
welding equipment or other ozone generating sources.
• Indoor storage is recommended, however if the vehicle must be
stored outdoors; store tires where they are raised off the ground (or
on storage racks) and not in contact with heat absorbent surfaces.
• Protect tires with an opaque, waterproof covering with some
type of vent openings to avoid creating a "heat box" or "steam
bath" effect.
