Hit the curb on a narrow street letting someone pass. Is this in need of replacing?

It doesnt look that bad but sidewall damage of any kind of generally something you dont fuck around with. If you can afford to replace the tire you should. If you want to run the tire at least move it to the rear axle so it doesnt pull your car off the road if it blows out.

it doesn't look like the structure of the tire is affected. if you see it bulging even minimally you have to replace it immediately.

Thanks guys. This happened yesterday, I'm not buying 4 more tires for 1k so I'm going to keep an eye on my pressure and get a rotation.

or get them done at costco. i had those morons replace a pair of tires cause the valv stem was leaking and the duffouses there couldnt figure that out.

If it doesn't bubble up, it's fine.
That's just the outer superficial layer.
But inspect it every week or so

Just leave it, who gives a fuck? Ignore redditors.

Holy fuck is this ai? This is the thing complaining modern vehicles are too "pigfat"?

Ive been driving whit same thing for las 30.000km. Just check it doesnt get a buble and it will be fine. Looks superficial. External layer.
And be carefull being polite out threre, as you see, it can be expensive.

Anon, the outer layer of sidewall that has all the written legal requirements, isn't considered a ply.
Otherwise curbing a tire would immediately send millions of retards off the road and crash.

I had the same thing and just replaced it. I use this car for hauling my kids around so didn't want to risk it.
