Heres what i do for display models:

1) armorall tires
2) store vehicle in a xx4 zip loc bag
3) place vehicle on a stand
4) display in an area with no direct sun light

Hope this helps

Looks like you got a Robinson Racing white machined spur gear on it. Very cool. I am jealous, been looking for one of those for years! Nice truck. 8)

Just a friendly heads up: Putting Armor All on the tires is actually going to make them dry out faster! Do some research if you don't believe me.
Something clever goes here...

what would you recommend, I'm a little curious myself, I have used Meguiars hot shine tire spray in the past.
