I have done a search and cannot find any answers to my question. How do you take care of your tires if the bus wont be driven for awhile? I would think having the weight of the bus on them for the winter would put a flat spot in the tires. Do you jack the bus up on jack stands for the winter? Sorry for the newb questions just wondering as im about to buy all new tires and sometimes the bus will sit for 8 months. Thanks -Josh

Modern tires don't develop flat spots by sitting for 8 month, or any length of time.

I do nothing, except keep direct sun light off them.
