Trailer winter storage

Should the weight be taken off of the tires when storing our trailer for the winter?

I personally would leave them on the ground, but place the tires on pieces of wood not left on concrete or the ground.

I sometimes don't express myself clearly. What I was really worried about was the wheel bearings. Thank you for the quick reply.

Should be no problem to let it sit on ground. Bearings will hold up to that. I do know that some put a jackstand under the frame to take the weight off. Never did that in 32 years.
