The indentation is called a Radial Splice. During tire construction, the cords run parallel to each other from bead to bead. Because of their "straight across" radial orientation, the overlaps where the sidewall cords are lap-spliced may cause indentations. Sidewall indentations are a cosmetic condition that does not affect the performance of the tires.
