Winter storage question

[rwdrs]

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

The best way to do it though is to stick the car on stands, as if the car stands in the same position for months on end the tyres get "flat spots", the carcass deforms (especially with radials).

Let it sit naturally on the ground. Had my yokohama's on for nearly 5 years now. 30psi. Never a problem with flat spotting when stood for 6 months at a time. But, if you have shite tyres........

Just put it in the carcoon and stop being gay son as per call.

Raise the tyre pressures to 3 bar for storage. That's how all the OEM's do it.

Keep it Simple :kiss:

Stick it in a Permabag and forget about it!
