Possibly stacked up like a pile of .. tyres ?.

If you are going to keep them for a while, maybe stick
each tyre inside a strong dark black polythene sack
and even exclude as much oxygen as possible by giving
a blast from a CO2 fire extinguisher, then tape sealing.

Stood on edge on a flat surface will tend to make them ovid and
create a flat spot. Lying flat on a surface, possibly in a stack
would be better but how high the stack could be before the lowest
ones got too squished I don't know. Garages have them on edge in
racks that provide support in at least two places. Support like that
in the right position will avoid the ovid making but unless the
contact area is large may give a dent at the support points.

Probably the best way is to keep them individually suspended in tanks of
silicone oil at a constant probably low temperature. Maybe in so-called
'microgravity' in orbit would help too. Accelerating them to close to
the speed of light would slow down ageing relative to you.

Or just stack them up and swap them around occasionally.

Keep them in the dark in a cool, dry place.

Unless they are genine road-legal tyres (and not
some Chinese crap intended for horse&carts) and
they are the correct size for your car, just flog
them off and save the space.

Every tyre place I've ever seen stores them vertically. When fitted and
with the weight of the car, they can develop a flat spot. But on their own?

I would put them in thick black plastic bags to keep the light out, though.

That’s because it’s the only viable way to do tyre place
storage. You need to be able to get individual tyres out
by moving just the tyre you want. That doesn’t mean
that it’s the approach which sees the tyres last longest.

When fitted and with the weight of the car,
they can develop a flat spot. But on their own?

That can happen when the tyre stands
vertically on a flat surface at the bottom.

UV light and oxygen or still worse traces of ozone. Tyres are really
well crosslinked polymers but they do degrade with time even so.

Would you worry about plasticiser release inside a plastic shed?
Probably not, I guess. It't not going to cause environmental stress
cracking of course. Which is the reason you try to reduce the stress on
them, including the old one about jacking cars up and putting the axles
on bricks. So a single layer reversed periodically might be best, if
hardly convenient.

Stood on edge on a flat surface will tend to make them ovid and

Yes but they have the turnover. With so many "next day delivery"
wholesalers I doubt if they keep anything long.
