If you leave your car or truck parked for a period of time do you worry about the tires on them.
I personally know of fleets of trucks that sit for months because of seasonal work and they are parked on gravel cement and or pavement.
Just park it and don't worry about it. Your tires will age out faster than they will fail from anything that could seep into them.
My thoughts are if you are placing rubber or wood or plastic under them the moisture will seep through that as well so it will still get to your tires
The only way moisture can penetrate your tire is if you have alot of deep cuts in the rubber down to the belts that will alow the moisture in. That is mainly caused by alot of gravel road travel.
