Re: storing rims/tires

Store the tires/rims in a cool, dry climate....definitely away from direct sunlight and heat. I'm storing mine in a basement....and I'm stacking the tires on top of each other...and then draping a drop cloth over the entire stack.

Yeah. And when I have 'em put on in a few months, the tire pressure will be checked (obviously)...and air will be added, if necessary.

I would wrap them in a garbage bag... It seals in the freshness!

Re: storing rims/tires

Here's some thoughts on the subject from some tire manufacturers. Note they don't agree 100%, but the suggestions are roughly along the same lines:
