Of course a sidewall is going to flex more. Hit a bump in the road, it flexes. Cornering it flexes. The sidewall carry the load of the car, the treads do not. |

If you blow a plug on a sidewall all the air will rush out, instant flat, and at 60MPH that could pose a problem. In the tread a blown plug and the air will come out, just not all at once. |
