How Do You Store Tires In Garage

[windhys]

Show me your setup. Right now I have them sitting on the garage floor.

I do not have tires to store but I have seen set ups like this a friends house.

I found this picture which are very similar to his set-up.

I have a similar set up that is constructed of unistrut and rigid conduit, and also holds 12 tires. I will get some pics later if anyone is interested.

My snow tires are stacked up in the mudroom of my winter ski place.

One set fits nicely under the stairs into the house. The other set is stacked next to them.

A 24" square plywood on 1x3 platform with castors works for me.

a long ways back i built a workbench with tire storage underneath... based on one of the benches that someone in here built.

funny thing is that i have never taken a single picture of it.

at this point though i have WAY, way too many wheels and tires to fit in the rack, so the majority are bagged up with cardboard between each wheel.

edit:
haha... google search has gotten better at vortex posts...

this is basically what i built. a few mods based on the wood i had sitting around, and making adjustments for tire heights... but very nearly the same.

I have a sweet stack of 8 tires right in between both garage doors

It actually works well since you typically can't put much in between the 2 doors.

I keep mine in the crawl space under my house.

Built one of these, but wish I had thought of using that metal rod (closet hanging rod?) like this guy did. I just used another 2x4 there, and military pressing the ~60lb wheel/tire combo over the lip created by the edge of the 2x4 is a pain in the butt. Yes, I need to get back to the gym.

I have two sets of winter wheels all stacked up on a $5 mover's dolly that I picked up at Harbor Freight, similar to this one:



It works great, and can be moved easily.

That's brilliant. I totally need to get one of those.

I do the ame thing. Makes moving them around very easy, since I don't really have a place to store them outa the way.
