Low tyre pressure - can damage be done?

Checking tyres today and the rear drivers side was down to 16psi! I haven't checked in a while so I don't know how long it could have been that low. Could this have damaged the tyre? I haven't noticed any change in ride and I have a long journey this week so good job I checked.

I think on 16psi you should be ok.

 

Only way to check is to get the tyre off mind you. I once ran on flat due to a nsikin the tyre and upon removal noticed the rim of the wheel had worn a groove into the inside of the tyre!

 

Could always get it removed and checked for peace of mind, can't be expensive. :)
