probably for awhile if you jack it up off the slicks. They will dryrott crack pretty quick, if they stay flat with the weight of the car on them

Another opinion for up on stands while sitting longer than 1-2 days. Mickey Thompson rec's taking them off, dropping the psi to 5 or less and storing them out of direct light on their side.
