My recommendation is to replace the wheels for the following reasons: 1) you may not feel it now, but when the temperature drops, my guess is you will start to feel some vibration due to uneven contact. This can affect performance, handling, and in the long run may damage your suspension. 2) I can't tell from the pictures, but I'd imagine overtime you will break the seal and lose pressure at the least opportune moment leaving you stranded, or worse at high speed can lead to a catastrophe!

I'd ask the dealership to replace them, or be on the lookout here on this forum and on eBay for gently used matching replacement wheels.

Best of luck!
