let me guess you installed them with the stock foams if so the foams are not tall enough and since the tire compund is so soft it will sink in dont worry wont effect performance

Or get some real foams, like Nova's 5.5 double dueces! Those will fill those tires up nicely

Nova's are the only way to properly stuff a tire.

Either way on the foams your gonna be happy with your Rover whites the dimples don't hurt the performance. If you do replace the stock foams Nova's 5.5 really do bring out the best in that tire. They also like a narrower wheel anything around 1" works best.
