From what I learned sounds like the buffers do outside AND INSIDE the tire leaving mostly just steel from belts and perhaps the rim. THEN comes the cryogenics which makes sense the cryogenics can't be to cheap to run. The less handling the cheaper the freezing process to my mind. Someone correct me if mistaken, appears the buffing strips the majority of the rubber from steel belts.
Therefore stockpiling some steel belts shouldn't pose a problem.
