Race Ramps™ 14" W FlatStoppers Car Storage Ramps - 4 Pack

Prevent flat spots from ruining expensive tires when storing vehicles for extended periods of time with the Race Ramps™ 14" FlatStoppers. FlatStoppers feature a concave depression designed to support the weight of the vehicle evenly across the tire, putting an end to flat spots to ensure that tires remain in great condition, even bias ply tires. FlatStoppers won't conduct heat from asphalt or concrete surfaces, further extending the life of the tires, thanks to their high-density foam construction. These tire supports weigh only 4 lbs. each and can support up to 6,000 lbs. per set of four. They are proudly made in the USA.

FlatStoppers have been saving thousands of tires worldwide while they're stuck in winter or long-term storage and they are more affordable than the cost of replacing your tires. When you're parking your car for 30 days or more, simply drive onto our best-selling 28-inch long FlatStoppers and your tires will settle into the concave depression of the pads to evenly disperse the weight of the car across the increased contact patch and prevent flat spots. Each tire storage pad can support up to 1,500 pounds for a combined total weight capacity of 6,000 pounds. After the 8.9-degree approach incline, the depression follows the natural shape of your tire to keep it in great condition until the next time you drive. Three width options are available, and if you have monster tires be sure to check out our 16-inch wide supercar FlatStoppers that fit tires up to 14 inches wide.

FlatStoppers are constructed of 100% solid, high-density foam with a rugged anti-slip coating that results in a lightweight tire storage solution that is strong, yet durable. They won't slide, scratch, or damage your floors, and won't conduct heat or cold from the surface to your tires, making them a versatile solution in hot or cold weather applications.

Before using the ramps ensure other persons are clear of the vehicle and the ramps. Ensure that the ramps are free from damage or corrosion before use. Use only a single pair of wheel ramps at the front or rear, do not use two ramps on one side of the vehicle. Position the ramps in line with the wheels, with the steering wheel pointed straight and the incline against the tire tread. Carefully drive the vehicle onto the automotive ramps until it is in the correct position. Turn the engine off, apply the parking brake, get out of the vehicle and securely chock the remaining wheels on the ground. Before starting work, walk around the vehicle ensuring it is securely positioned. Always use a jack stand if a person will be going under the vehicle. On completion of the work, check the parking brake is still firmly on and remove the chocks. It is important to drive very slowly when coming off the ramps to prevent the automotive bodywork from making contact with the car ramp. Exercise caution when using these car ramps with a trailer or three wheeled vehicles.
