and...to f-up my otherwise wunderbar day...I was cleaning my summer rims up

and found a nice big ding on the inside lip...I'll be replacing it ASAP and it wont be seeing my mileage...but how bad would it be to throw it on now? there is no bubble in the rubber and it seems to be holding pressure fine...

Shouldn't have a huge problem. Maybe have it re balanced. But if it isn't bent it shouldn't be bad.

Maybe it could be repaired so you could use it for a full-sized spare.
