I can believe it. If the rim contact area for the bead is to smooth, absolutely. Long story short, Porsches experienced tires collapsing at 120mph back in the 70's, here the bead would lose contact and collapse, so they took a media blaster to the magnesium to rough it up, never collapsed or slipped again.
