as I understand it, oxidation is the main cause of this, with ozone (an especially reactive form of oxygen) accelerating the process. I think it was Armor All, tire black, etc, that has been used as a barrier to oxygen getting to the tire, but they don't last long. Used to be more of problem with natural rubber than with today's synthetics, but a coating of some sort would do more good than putting them inside, especially if you have electric motors running where you would store them, they make ozone.

Tire Rot On Tires
I am trying to avoid tire rot on my trailer. New tires, but parked on dirt and grass near the woods. thinking I should take off the tires and store inside, and put the trailer on cinder blocks until I need the trailer. Have the boat in a slip now. Any suggestions, or simply affirmation that I am on the right track.
