I roll mine up onto dense insulating foam pads that are under the vapour barrier tarp (tape Xs so that you can put the car on target). The pads deform and take the shape the tires to some degree...rather than all deformation occurring in the tire. You can then fold up the tarp sides/corners around the wheels and tape to then top of the tire. You can then chock the wheels. After that you can take the car out of gear, and parking brake off. I been fine never never having to roll the car...for tire flat spotting anyway. Rolling the car gets the whole driveline moving and is a whole other topic.

I do all this as the car sits in at the bottom floor of an underground garage...it can get pretty damp.

Okay okay SoCal buddies no laughing or snickering please
