Being unaccustomed to having a pile of wheels in the garden (although not as unaccustomed as SWMBO ), are they ok just left in the garden? Should the rubber be off the ground? I'm planning on leaving them there until I sell the car in 18 months.......... Please don't let SWMBO know that though Disco 5 HSE Lux

I think they'll be OK in the wet, it's more the sun and lack of movement that may deteriorate them. I'll be storing my spares in the 'coal shed' we have (which of course no longer houses coal...)
Does anyone have a spare wheel trolley (a la F1 style type of thing?) that they want to get rid of? Bodsys Brake Bible

I would be careful they don't root - I'm no bottantist, but rubber plants might start out this way. D3 HSE V8...

I'm not an expert, but couldn't you sell the car a bit earlier, fully assembled?

Just watch out for the silent destroyer - UV
I'd wrap them in black poly if I were you !!
that's if I can use the word 'black' - and that Poly dosn't mind I was a normal heterosexual chap, but in these new woke awakenings I now identify as a Wardrobe.
