I agree, I don't think you should let your tires sit around for years. I just question weather allowing the tire to cure a little longer may be beneficial? Paint, lacquer, adhesive are all dry to the touch in hours but have a much longer cure time. Latex paint will ball up if you try sanding it for repaint within a couple months of application. Most autobody shops advise waiting a couple months before waxing a new paint job. I have tested silicone adhesive at work and silicone that is allowed to cure for a year is almost impossible to remove but even silicone allowed to cure for a month or two can be removed very easy.
