winter storage

Hello all

Would like some feedback. I have a Journey QD. Would like to know best way to store when not using. About 3 to 4 months it is stored. My question is; on leveling jacks, on tires or on some kind of frame/jack support with jacks up.
Any ideas helpful.

I would drive up onto some 2x12's so the tires are not in direct contact with the ground. Leave jacks up.

This is not any different than what folks do for winterizing. There could be a hole lot more questions but you only asked this one.

Good morning

What I was thinking of was taking some of the weight off the tires. On my tri-toon I go through a set of tires about every other year, maybe get three years. Was told by more than one sales rep that extended time setting then moving was hard on tires. Flat spots I guess. The tread just separates at the sidewall. I know RV tires are built for that kind of weight but just trying to extend life ALAP. Thinking of putting wooden blocks under retracted jacks then letting air off to settle RV onto them.
