Another note - ran a search earlier

Tires on Rims > ok to stack
Just tires > stand on end

So technically, that picture is wrong :)

Steeda uses Fedex and requires signature, however if you are ok with them being left at the door without you being home you can down load and print an authorization with your signature, or you can redirect them to a FedEx pick up site. I recently had a Steeda shipment where Fedex tried allegedly 4 deliveries and never left a door tag, just before it was to be shipped back I spoke to customer service and got it redirected to a Walgreens for pick up, if I am able to I will get it this weekend

That seems exactly backwards. I have a spare used SC2 in the garage and it flattened out badly standing on end.

I'll just wait - just watching movies and such. In our remodeling the house, I never reconnected / installed a new door bell so keeping an eye on the security cameras / run to the window every time I hear a truck pass, lol...

Probably should install a door bell one of these days.

#3 - The best way to store tires is standing upright – it puts less stress on the tires. If you have to stack your tires, try not to stack them too high. If your tire tower gets too tall, it could topple over and damage the tires.

However, if your tires are mounted on the rims, you should store them stacked, not upright.

Can anyone chime in on what's best?!?

I just use common sense - short stacks of 2, indoors, is fine for tires. I don’t leave any tire upright for long, especially r comp.

It took me like a full 2 times reading this thread to get it was referring to the tires. I didn't even see them at first.

Thats the silliest shit ever. Tirebuyer must be selling something to make that shit up.
Stacking 12-18 months laying flat 4 high is fine.
8 stack stored in 120F heat for two summers will have a tad bit of sidewall preload until first heat cycle, but should be fine after.
We stored reference sets for test engineering and would have seen any issues as we studied subtle minutiae like ply steer and groove wander.
