Default Foam Inserts

Hey guys, I just got a set of Imex tires in and the foam inserts arrive bent inwards. I guess that's the way they pack / package them for some weird reason (see picture below).

Anyway, after mounting them, the tires are running out of round because the foam inserts are out of round, so I was wondering if the inserts will level out after running the truck or is there some sort of special trick to this.

Thanks!

Anyone have a suggestion? I was thinking about submersing the foams in water and then blow drying them in hopes that they would level out evenly.

A blow dryer or heat gun will bring them back to normal shape

Yeah, I submerged them in water and set them out to dry. They're taking on a nice round shape they way they're supposed to.

Thanks,
