Best way to safely vertically store tires and wheels at home
I have recently purchased a new tire stand from Cartrend, to store the 20 inch tires of my Tesla Model 3 Performance. Since I am very happy with the build quality of this Tyre Stand from Cartrend I thought I’d make a quick video about it. There are many wheel and tire stands to choose from on Amazon, but this one seems very strong and durable. It was very easy to put together and took only 15 minutes without special tools or advanced skills.
Why is a vertical tire and wheel stand important to store winter tires?
A vertical tire and wheel stand is important for storing winter tires because it:
- Saves Space: Vertical storage maximizes floor space, allowing efficient use of garage or storage areas.
- Prevents Deformation: Storing tires upright reduces the risk of flat spots or sidewall damage compared to stacking them horizontally, which can cause uneven pressure and distortion over time.
- Improves Organization: Keeps tires neatly arranged, making it easier to access and rotate them seasonally.
- Enhances Air Circulation: Vertical storage allows better airflow around tires, reducing moisture buildup and the risk of mold or mildew in humid conditions.
- Protects Rims: When tires are mounted on wheels, a vertical stand prevents scratches or damage to rims that could occur from stacking or improper storage.
Best optimal storage area for car tires at home
For optimal storage, ensure tires are cleaned, stored in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, and, if unmounted, consider using tire bags to protect against dust and UV exposure. Check out my other video how I prepare tires before storage at home.
