I don't know if there is any damage to my tire... It was just low. It was still holding air.

But if you do get a puncture (nail, etc) just get it patched. You only have to replace the tire I'd you have sidewall damage.

Hey wongerz, with those offsets and tire size in the rear do you rub? Did you have to roll your rear fenders. Also how low are. I'm planning on running a similar set up and just wanted to know your experience with it. Thanks.
