Default wobbley tire FOAM BLOWN

I just broke in my new axial 28rr and no when I'm doing some high speed runsim noticed the wheballons way to much. Then I squeezed the tire and noticed an area in the tire that has no foam behind it. I don't ever drive it through water that I remember what can I do. Now ill have to replace tire just to get the foam replaced?

i'd try do spread the foam in side the tire if you could, maybe "massage" the tire and get the foam back into place.

Have the same problem with my stock terra pins om my xl. I trird the massaging ting and that didnt help so i put it on the rear of the truck, it was the front before, in the hopes that the more concestent traction would help even it out. Got a little better but havent run it much since so we shall see.

The only problem I have had with the Terra Pins so far is they like to bend to the inside and not fully return. Looks kind of funny. Happens mostly after driving in a circle really hard. kind of bends them inward.
