Think I have figured out a way to have the tyre deflate at the bottom whilst looking like it is bulging out at the top.

Basically it has a void and thin segments that are raised from an inner thicker core. When printed in TPU the thin segments will squish in when the weight of the droid is applied to them (bottom) and spring back out when there is no weight (Top)
Update:- did a test print of a ¼ section of the tyre in PETG, works perfectly, now to prepare for a looooooong TPU print of the full tyre.
D-O or D-O not, there is no try.
