I just recieved my rims and tires..and the tires came unboxed, no protection. I am guess that there was some extra weight or something on my tires during shipping and now the inner lip of the tire is bent inwards...i'm guessing air in the tire will fix this...but i could be wrong....?

Only one way to find out, Nate...

Take pictures before install, for warranty protection.

It it doesn't inflate right, you can send back.

Without seeing a picture it sound's like the bead area is damaged -- DO NOT have it
mounted -- call the business that you bought them from and explain your problem. They should send you a replacement tire

EH, should be ok, once the bead is set it should pop out correctly

nope -- once it's bent it's bent for good -- I wouldn't want to be the guy trying to air that tire up and have it fail on him -- but I'm still guessing if that is the damaged area of the tire -- need to a pic

^^ A lot of places will not even *mount* a tire with a bent bead for that exact reason.

The tire is mounted and balanced. All is well

TOLD YA SO! HAHA im just kidding, without pics of teh problem none of us could really determine how "bent" it was
