Hey, Mike,
<snip> Will they be ok to use? Will that flat spot go away once mounted and
pressurized?<snip>
I don't see why they wouldn't be ok to use. I've had my boat trailer sit
longer than that WITH the boat on it & with water in the boat from rain &
snow due to a rip in the cover from a falling tree branch. I aired them up
and dragged the whole thing 15 miles to a service center (after draining out
the excess H2O!) and had no problems. The trailer tires are way smaller than
LT or car tires, & probably of a more inferior grade (i.e. CHEAPER) than
what you have stored. I doubt that the weight of an unmounted tire - upon
itself - would cause any permanent deformation...
But, I'm sure we have some tire experts on the list who would know for
sure...
IMHO, go for it...
HTH,
