Thanks for all your inputs.
I usually store my car at my mom's condo underground garage and put a cover over it. I don't think I want to put jacks underneath just in case some stupid neighbours kids would push the car over.
I'll take out the battery for sure, and maybe will try over-inflating tires. Last year I was on stock wheels, and by spring, battery was dead and tires were all deflated....

Does everyone store their S2k in their own garage, does anyone use a car storage service?
I was looking for reasonably priced self-serve car storage, I don't want to park my s2k in my condo garage because it's fairly damp with snow/etc in the winter

If anyone have input on that I'd appreciate it.

I store mine in my garage... Its heated but I have to convince my wife to let me leave the heater on lol...
I leave the battery connected and start it up and move it around every week. I also over inflate the tires and park it on 3/4" foam...
As suggested I also throw a tarp down on my garage floor (the floor is rubberized so Id on't know if this is really needed but whatever) and I put a breathable dust cover over it....
Most importantly be sure to fill the tank and put fuel stabilizer in this is important...
