Tires can be a difficult thing to manage.  They're thought of as sturdy, rugged products, that are used to hold up your vehicle and keep you moving along.  In reality, they're fairly fragile, and if not taken care of properly, can warp easily, and a warped tire creates a dangerous situation where a blowout can occur.  This is a concern for tire manufacturers, tire resellers, and repair shops, or anyone who deals in them.  It also can hurt companies that store tires for their own vehicles, such as bus companies, construction crews, and companies that can't afford down-time with flats and blowouts.

Finding the right balance of storage and accessablity for tires is a major concern.  This creates a tipping point for companies, where the convenience of storing the tires in a way that the tires can be quickly pulled from the shelves may outweigh the need for the tires to be stored in a way that they can't warp or deform.

Tier-Rack Corp has the answer.  TThe Tier-Rack Stacking Rack, invented by Tier-Rack in 1955, is the industry leader in creating vertical, portable space in your warehouse.  The original Tier-Rackョ pallet stacking frame converts regular warehouse pallets into sturdy storage racks in seconds without screws or bolts. And the Load-Nesterョ all-steel storage rack features light and heavy duty models of solid all-welded, knock-down, or nestable designs for all your material handling needs.

Our portable stacking racks and rack systems are designed to handle and store even the most fragile, odd-shaped, and awkward merchandise. They can be designed to transport two loads at a time. Our stack racks reduce handling time, stack four to six high, and they are capable of supporting thousands of pounds per unit load. All styles of racking are engineered to meet and/or exceed the "2-to-1" safety factor established by the Rack Manufacturers Institute (RMI) for portable rack design specifications.

With Tire Racks, this is very important.  Tires must be stored so that there is not an excessive amount of pressure on the tire, which can cause warping and soft spots, damaging the live expectancy of the tire.  These can lead to blowouts and dangerous conditions, and angry customers as well!
