Ok, don't laugh, but I read somewhere to put talcum powder or baby powder all over them and wrap them in plastic and store them in a cool, dark place.....

I think the powder keeps them pliable and keeps them from cracking? Again, I may be off base here....

Just my .02

You might be right, have you ever bought a new inner tube for say a bicycle, and when you opened it, it had a slight powder on it? Maybe I am way off base, just throwing out ideas....

Here is a link to some good info.... [url]https://www.tirerack.com/tires/tiretech/techpage.jsp?techid=37/url]


Hope this helps

I don't know much about storing tires but I would say keep out of sun and in a cool place and you should be golden.
