I have four Blizzaks in storage from an old 528 that have not been on the road since winter of '04/'05. Back then, they were utilized for about three winters total ('02/'03 -- '04/'05). Each winter they were on the car from mid Dec. to early Mar. with an average seasonal mileage of about 2,500 miles for a total of around 8k-9k. In my estimation they have about 70% - 75% tread life remaining.

The questions are - 1) what are the concerns of continuing garage storage with option of future use (if I end up adding the sedan back into the mix)? 2) is there safety expiration? 3) anything else to consider? ( I've seen the above input thus far and duly noted, just wondering if anyone else would like to weigh in on the subject)

Thanks.
