New tyres always seem to have some kind of grease, lubricant on them im guessing to protect against moisture?

I would've thought kwikfit and other tyres places store them vertically as it's easier and safer for picking/restocking. Storing many tyres on their sides would mean a lot of weight on the bottom tyres and is probably not a good use of space. I could be wrong though :) |

I think neil's got it. also their tyers shouldn't be stored for long periods.

On F1 cars they pump the tyres up with nitrogen,less pressure change when they warm up.Also compressed air contains water
