No, in my experience with tires, if you get the cheaper ones they come with a noticeable dimple on the sidewall. I have been told that that is the seam of the steel belt. This has caused me some concern too but it is ok as long as it is not bulging out. If it is a dip inwards that is ok but bulging out is a cause for concern!
