Yes, I might have a small degree of NCOCD, but the testing as shown in the youtube video seems to be frequent small bumps (like driving on an unsealed road), rather than a one off large impact like hitting a deep pothole at 80km/h.

Attached is a photo showing the black mark which the tyre sidewall left on the rim. I don't think it is that easy for the sidewall to compress back onto the rim like that, especially one with a stiff sidewall like the PSS.

I've only come across this once before in 20 years of driving, and that was a high profile "balloon" tyre on a SUV (235/65/17), which I assume would compress more easily.
