Being softer rubber, snow tires are even safer at temps below 49°

Mine went on rather early this year, Aug, after running out of tread on the current set.

Just slapped my Nokian WR_G2s on this afternoon.
GRD 4theWIN! I can't believe how much chain tire shops want for mounting tires: $37 each! Luckily I got out of work early and was able to get down to GRD. |

Summer tires come in on Monday. So here's a question... where is the best place to store my Blizzaks until needed?

I just store mine in a corner in the garage. I put a board down first then a pease of cardboard between each wheel then cover with a old blanket.

I have a heated garage will this effect anything. I heard the garage wasn't the best for storing tires, dryrot?

I've been storing my tires in a rack I hung from the ceiling in my heated garage 5 years ago, and they've been fine.

I also heard its best to store the tires lying flat and not to store them standing up cause it can flat spot or warp the tire.
