Default DWT Rims?

i Have Red label .190 dwt rims on the back of my z with holeshot Hds on them and when i was washing it the other day i noticed the back side of the rim where the tire seats to the bead has a bent/flat spot. i guess this had to happen from a rock but the tire holds air and there is no scuff marks on sidewall of tire or the rim? weird huh? anyone ever bend of of these rims just from trail riding?

Rocks / im not sure lol. Just flying down a big coal road and I cut a corner and I went sideways in the air and landed in a little wash out and my rim looked like that in the bottom pic. And the other one was from I'm not sure but I was jumping at a mx track near my house. I think it was rocks to.

3-4, 6-7 psi... both wrong . It's supposed to be 5 in front and 4 in the rear! In all seriousness, i've bent a few stock wheels just trail riding. I picked up a set of baja's and they never bent, now i've got douglas g2 headlocks on there, we'll see how they hold up.

4 is the minimum i'd run unless you have reinforced rims. At 2 psi i'm surprised this is the first rim you've bent.
