Thinking of buying some tire covers to help protect from sun damage ..any recommends?

TIA
 
At an FMCA rally, I got to hold on to Roger Marble for a few questions. The thing that really hurts tires is not UV, it is heat. Do I have to tell you about Black Tires in the sun? What ever you get, get them in White.

damn your impeccable logic
or you could buy one set of four and buy my two spares at a heavy discount
Ah ...your spares sound like a good buy but the bugbear of shipping, (USA Version 2023.11 vs. Amazon.ca) unfortunately puts it out of the question. I just had a gift of an old phone ($40 item) sent from Seattle, Fedex ground.
Shipping cost my brother US$40 (~CAD$55) followed by a bill to me in the mail from Fedex for a further CAD$38 for customs processing and taxes. There were even taxes on the brokerage fees. So, a gift valued at $40 cost $93 to get to my place approx 100 miles over the border.

Of course I never ship via UPS or Fedex ground because of the hidden fees but my brother just went to the store and listened to the shipping clerk.
