A quick question: If I wasn't going to use my car for say a period of 2 months would I be best to leave the car on axle stands?

These are separate views of the same evidence. Frequency alone does not establish a fix, and these counts must not be added together.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

5 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

0 evidence records excluded for query context · 0 excluded by outcome qualification · 0 adjusted by outcome qualification.

0 acknowledgements have no verified action link; they do not establish a repair result.

POST 1Original post

For 2 months I wouldnt bother, I'd just pump the tyres up to recomended max & leave it with a battery conditioner connected. However if you come back after 2 months and find you have had a slow puncture and now a tyre is shagged you will hate me, so might as well stick it up on axle stands and leave the wheels some where else. Then it wont matter & it will be practically theft proof to all but the most determined tea leaf

POST 3Original post

Speaking with 10 years experience of laying up a car for months at a time over winter without any preparation at all other than parking it in the garage and connecting a battery conditioner, it's an old wives tale that the tyres go square - they just don't. I wouldn't worry about it at all. It may have been true with crossplies a million years ago but it's no problem with modern tyres.

POST 4Original post

Agreed, two months isn't 'that' long. If you were leaving the country for a year I may suggest otherwise.
