In my area we have to keep them covered up and away from sunlight and heat too.

I keep my "off tires" in a shed out back, no fancy covers. It doesn't get lower than 40 F deg in there and it's dry, UV free. It has kept the stock contis from my sister's 02 MC crack free and functioning for more than 5 years. Yes they are old, and need to be replaced based on age, I know that, but I'm cheap.

garage is not heated but the door seldom opens during the winter as
my daily drivers are parked outside.

casters and a 1" or so thick particle board disc purchased at HomeDepot.

I did that once after being at the track and hitting the empty light.
Drove home about 8 miles and going uphill in the last 1 mile before the gas station but never made it.
Called AAA and got a gallon of gas after my wife refused to help me.![No](https://www.northamericanmotoring.com/forums/images/smilies/no.gif)

She was "busy" at home about 4 miles away.
