the sidewall flex, is directly related to the air pressure the tires are capable of running.
Take your choice!

Side wall flex is sorta Dependant on the air pressure in the tire.

But not completely if you have a high ply tire it may sit higher until load is applied!

Yep.. I got used aircraft tires on my 15' batwing mower.. those suckers can be out of air and the sidewall NOT flex because they are so dang thick... in their case.. air pressure makes -0- difference to sidewall flex as the tire casing is strong enough by itself to hold up the batwing weight..

You are lucky. Don't have to pay for air to fill the tires!
