Re: [A/S] What's best under my Airstream



 
Sam,

Just an FYI, at an A-Weigh-We-Go seminar we were
warned against long term contact for tires and
concrete.  Apparently the lime and other chemicals in
concrete will leach away the compounds in the tire
that protect against dry rot and UV.  It was suggested
that you place something between the tire and concrete
when you store your trailer or MH.  The evidence is
usually found in the tire marks that are left on the
concrete when you park in a spot for considerable
time.  That's the leaching process occuring.
