As I have my 25' camper in a camping area yearly the question has came up about the tires,should the camper be setting with the tires on board?

Thanks

I would think a board and more important would be wheel covers. Keep the sun off.

unless you're going to put it up on blocks at the axles, the boards and covers would be a great start.

I've been using the wheel covers now I think I'm going to start using boards under them also....

Hi Shooter47025: I cover the wheels with covers I got a camping World. I inflate the tires to about 55psi which is 5# over the pressure that I use when traveling. The unit is parked on a slight slope on gravel soil. I do not use boards under the wheels as I think the slope and the gravel give good drainage of water from the site. Happy camping. Jim2007
