Tire/Wheel Storage

Just wanted some tips on how I should store my autoX tires and wheels. Does it make a diference if I leave them inflated or deflated? Thanks

I did read in GRM to deflate the tires. The air inside will "bleed" through the tread oxidizing the rubber as it goes through. So if you store them on their side in a stack you should have no problem with them keeping shape. Mine are currently deflated, bagged and in the basement.
