I store my cars on jacks during the winter, just make sure that you put the jacks under the suspension i.e. under the front A-arms and the de-Dion on a transaxle car otherwise you will potentially ruin your shocks.

This is a good tip. Is there anything that can be done about "driver-induced" flat spotting? The kind that comes from locking up the brakes? Could a tire shop tell if a tire has this? I've got a nasty vibration that starts at 65 mph, but not slower. I haven't seen if it goes away at higher speed, I think the car would explode from the shaking!!
Thanks!
