        Leave the wheels on, tax 'em and use 'em on nice days.

              I've only ever rolled mine into air chamber, no over inflating and no stands. They won't go off.

                        like to keep it on the ground, with used tyres/wheels. dont like the thought of the suspension hanging down and tearing/splitting the bushes etc, as these are tightened when the car is on the ground anyway
                        just a thought into the madness
