Steps to storing:

1. Clean car.
2. Change the oil (filter not necessary as it wont do anything with the car not moving).
3. Fill fuel tank and run for 5min with fuel stabilizer.
4. Park car on blocks of wood (tires, never let suspension hang), place bounty sheets in and around wires, engine bay, under the car, inside the car, etc to prevent critters from having a snack.
5. Put battery tender on car or remove the terminals from the battery (remove entirely from car if you wish and place on block of wood).
6. Cover exhaust tips to avoid risk of having cooked critter in Spring.
7. Inflate tires to max PSI recommended on the tires.
8. Cover car.

I parked mine on a tarp this year to keep moisture transfer down while in the garage. I also sprayed lithium grease on various bolts in the engine bay to prevent rust/condensation.

This seems to work well for me. To avoid issues with my summer wheels/tires, I just put the stock back on this year.
