P.S. Those liftbars may just be the coolest thing I have ever seen.
There has been a lot of debate about that over the years (on rennlist, 928 forum where I mostly hang out). Many do, but the smart guys say put something under the wheels in order to keep the shocks from becoming fully unloaded, which is bad for the seals apparently. It makes sense to me.
I never put my cars off the ground for extended periods. I do overinflate the tires quite a bit to avoid flat spotting, however. A few months of sitting won't hurt anything imho.
