Default Off season care for rain tires
Do I need to keep my Hoosier wets warm and bagged up during the off season similar to the R-7's

stack 2 tires and throw a piece of plywood on it and you have a coffee table.

Stack 2 tires and throw a piece of glass on it and you have a dining room table!

Now thats how to maintain your rain tire in the off season!
