JBurg,
I have seen that happen before and you are correct, one has to be careful and if something doesn't feel right, check it out. I have seen smaller rocks get in between the tires on dually pickups and actually tear up the sidewalls and ruin the tires.

A buddy of mine in high school had a farm cat crawl thru the holes in the dual rims and get stuck... Truck vibrated like crazy all the way to school... Things can and will happen.

That happened to me with a heavy truck camper in the bed. I reduced the air in the outer tire to remove the rock and got it partially reinflated with the air bag compressor. Drove real slow to a service station to get it properly inflated.
