This is a noob question, my mustang 5.0 has been sitting for about 2 years now, I still start her, move her back and forth. Tires tend to lose air when not in motion, do tires go bad after x amount of years of just sitting there, or can I just add air and it's ready to go again? I live in southern Cali so the weather has been, cold, rainy, hot and I'm sure that also affects the tires. Any thoughts?

 

they can get flat spots and dry rot

 

Will be a fun ride with those flat spots when you do take it out on the road. Storage for that period of time I would have put the car on jack stands.

 

Stale old air, needed fresh air. Quick ride will tell if they have flat spot. Dunk test for laeks.

 

my slicks get a flat spot after sitting in the garage over the winter with the weight of the car on them, a quick heat cycle usually gets that issue gone but these are bias ply vs a radial

 

So basically get them checked before driving on them again? I live in social and smog here is a pain. Though I do know someone that can smog it, it will just cost me $. I have been trying to sell her but I think with the economy, nobody has disposable income right now
