No.

What portion of the rim does it match up to?
Haven't identified it yet. Since I can't make it happen on the stand, I'll put some chalk marks on the tire and try to ID it on the road.

I suspect it's the seam. Or if it's some other section, pull out calipers and measure the width and make sure it's the same all the way around.
I have a micrometer that might clear the tire. That would be a lot easier than calipers. I couldn't feel or see anything, though.

I did find one spoke (of 36?) kinda loose.
