It can't be any worse than the fuel pump.

actaully i don't think anything is up with the sidewalls. the sidwalls on the tires still look sturdy as hell. doesn't look flat @ all.

From the outside or inside?

Of course it will look fine from the outside (especially on a RFT). However, if you drove on it at around 10 PSI, is dead and will comprimise performance. I'll show you when we take it off.

+1

once you lose the integrity of the sidewalls on an RFT, the wheel is compromise i needs to be replaced....
