Who blocks their trailer wheels up off the hard during storage? Does it really matter?

I do for both my trailer and my Miata. It keeps the tires from flat spotting.

I always jacked up the trailer to prevent the tires from taking on a set.

We usually lift the entire trailer in about 4 or 6 spots on the Evelyn 32. That trailer has stands built in around the tires to lift them up, we also jack up the stern and bow of the trailer.

Same reasons - keep the tires from flattening
