Default ET Drag Question

I never "Winterized" my ET Drags. They are just sitting in my garage side by side and the weather here in NY has been under 20* for the past week. Will these tires be any good when I go to use them in the Spring. I hear abour "Winterizing" ET Drags, but never did it. Any info is appreciated.

Thanks,
Mike

Mike,

I suggest laying them on thier sides or hang them from the wall. They will tend to flat spot.

I second what John said. Lay them on their side or hang them on the wall. If your tires sit for too long and feel a little stiff use some tire softener.
