Do GY Runflats get flat spots from sitting

Do GY Runflats get flat spots from sitting
Hi folks,
Unfortunately I will have to layup my 99 for about 6 months and am wondering if I will have flat spots even if I have proper tire inflation. I am not really into jacking it up, but if I have to I have to..
Also is there anything I can do to preserve the rotors besides taking them off. If they have any rust build up is there anything I can do to clean them?
Any help would be appreciated.
Thank you,
Flyboy

I've noticed vibration from tires that have sat for just a few months. I don't know if it completely goes away, or what, because I just sold my car that had sat for a long time.

As for the rotors a few brake applications will clean off any rust.

I would go "curbside shopping" and find some old carpeting. Cut it into 1 foot squares, and put a couple squares under each tire. As long as the rotors don't see any directy water, you should be OK there.
