Cut slots and bend it over.

Easiest, fastest, and loudest way is to use an air hammer - takes like 60 seconds per side. Manual hammer and cut/fold are also possible options.

Then if you're really picky like me, after you hammer it flat you fill the gap with seam sealer then paint or bedline over it so it looks finished.

Second this, Didnt need to cut any slits in mine. Pounded it flat with little issues using a dead blow sledge. This also provides a nice smooth surface if your tire contacts it vs lots of little razor blades if you cut slits in it.

BFH, no cutting needed
DONE
Brought my BF brass hammer home from work and between that and a small pointed end mini sledge, it came out very nice with no gaps to every consider filling.
No cuts, just pound and paint. The hardest part was taking the wheel off.
That and feeling old and tired today !
Thanks for the tips.
