Do radial tires get flat spots after sitting for awhile?

Yes, radial tires can develop flat spots if they sit in one position for an extended period. This occurs because the weight of the vehicle compresses the tire's rubber in contact with the ground, causing a temporary deformation. However, these flat spots often resolve themselves after driving a short distance as the tire heats up and regains its shape. Regular movement of the vehicle can help prevent this issue.
