Tyre flat spots.

[timbo]

Does anyone have any Ideas to help stop flat spots an the tyres of my 1:18 models, as they are displayed on a glass shelf.

Well the only way to stop flat spots on the wheels is not to have the wheels touching the ground.

Try maybe a stand under the car of some sort.
Flat Black or silver would look good.
Go to where they sell glass and see if you can get some small pieces cut up and stack them up to get the correct height.

Try screwing longer screws (not thicker) into the screw holes
so the screws touch the ground, which will raise the car up and you would hardly notice them.
The only hassle there is you make not be able to get the original screws to fit again.

Well I hope this gives you some ideas
