In addition to lowering the stabalizers, leveling, ...

Is it possible that the weight of the TAB (while in garage storage) can cause a flat tire in weeks?

    No more so than your tow vehicle would have a flat tire after staying in your garage or a storage gargle for a few weeks. The T@B weighs approximately 1,680 lbs, dry weight, which is less than most 6 cal tow vehicles.

    I recommend "rotating" the tires. That's why I take my Tab camping every weekend. Other than that keep them out of the sun while in storage and dry if possible.
