There are wheel covers that would be ok to use and then store for extra protection. I am assuming that you will be removing the wheels from the bike.

Also, depends how near the home is to the ocean.

Also, tri bikes have specific wheelsets and costly.
If your bike has 4 wheels, it isn't really a bike.

And hanging the bike from the wheels has negligible effect on spoke tensions. It is nowhere near the effect a rider has on spoke tensions.
