cabby Posted February 17, 2017 Report Share Posted February 17, 2017 They look like they should be stored in the local skip, mine are in the kitchen next to the heater. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

faussy Posted February 17, 2017 Report Share Posted February 17, 2017 (edited) To me the tyres look in good condition, edges look good. Best thing you can do is keep them out of the sun, keep them in a box or somewhere dark. Keep them in air free from ozone, as ozone contributes to rubber cracking the most. This however is a little harder to do lol Edited February 17, 2017 by faussy 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

2stroke4stroke Posted February 17, 2017 Report Share Posted February 17, 2017 (edited) Stick them in a black poly bag in a reasonably consistent temperature. Out of light and ozone. Edited February 18, 2017 by 2stroke4stroke 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dadof2 Posted February 17, 2017 Report Share Posted February 17, 2017 Store in black plastic bag to keep sunlight off them. Cooler constant temperature is best. Some claim tyre paint contains chemicals that reduce aging. Surprisingly tyres age less when used regularly. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So wont help much with storage will it? DOH! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
breagh Posted February 18, 2017 Report Share Posted February 18, 2017 (edited) Quote Age less when used regularly that's the best news I've had in ages. I'll be keeping an eye on that dog turd in the Scorpas side wall to see when it heals up. Edited February 18, 2017 by breagh 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stpauls Posted February 18, 2017 Report Share Posted February 18, 2017 (edited) Why not put them on Ebay or Craigslist and sell them - one at a time, rather than as one lot. Or, take them along to your next trials meeting. People are often selling bits and pieces at them.
