I had a set of Carlisle tires that were terrible for flat spotting. Even overnight. Eventually they were replaced with a nice set of Kenda tires that never flat spotted. Even when parked for 5 months of winter! Finally wore those out and I replaced them with LSI Elite (China) tires that came with new 10 inch rims. No flat spotting with these either. Ive concluded there was something defective with the belts on those Carlisles (only the front tires had the problem). I do overinflate to 30 psi for many months of parked winter storage.

Flat spotting is NOT normal. Go back to your nice rims and get normal golf cart tires. You should be fine.
