How long before this can happen?

You can overinflate them or put the car on blocks to prevent this....I have had no flat spot probs when storing a car for a period of 8 months before.

If you have low profile tyres then I would guess this is unlikely to be a problem. and even if it does happen, itll disappear inside 3/4 miles. No worries.

I once stored my 911 for 6months or so...For about the first 5/10ths there was noticable vibration from the flatspots then after that it was back to normal.
