Here are two easy alternatives...

Once a week, roll the car forward or rearward 1/4 tire rotation.
Increase tire inflation to minimize your contact patch size

or... (this is what I do)....

Put the car up on jackstands for prolonged storage. This will also unload your springs and keep them fresh.

These are the best ways to deal with flat spots.
