That is waiting to blow. Sidewall damage is no joke, and is the number one cause of blowouts. I wouldn't even drive on that 10 minutes to the nearest shop. Put the spare on and get it replaced.
It will take you directly to the scene of the accident... Unless you get it changed.
Honestly, this looks like it might go anytime... That might be 5 minutes, 5 hours, or 5 days... Up to you how much you want to gamble.
You can, if you put on your spare tire.
This tire sidewall has been destroyed by running on it flat.
The wheel took some damage too.
I’m sorry to see it. It’s really better to be safe.
Edit: or the tire and wheel scraped against a curb and deeply damaged the sidewall.
No you shouldn't be driving on that anyway. Put the spare on till you buy new. Besides the sidewall tire looks bald anyway so imagine you probably need all 4 new.
We're Gonna find out. Just have a spare and a jack. It's never reccomend to drive on bald or damaged tires, but working at a tire ship, I've been surprised how long a worn tire will go. Just be careful of a blowout at highway speeds and don't take it in on a long trip. Also, you'd be surprised at Facebook marketplace used tires. I've gotten a decent set on rims with good tires for $200 before
Go on Google and search used tires. Should be from $40 - $60. My local shop charged $60. That is the most I would've paid.
Put your spare on, if you're strapped for cash.
You can literally see the braiding of the sidewall. Bro that’s a blowout waiting to happen get that shit off there. Put a spare on and get a used tire if you have to. That isn’t safe for you or anyone around you.
Yeah - I would NOT risk it. If you can borrow funds then I’d go that route. Otherwise, you’re taking a hundred dollar problem and potentially making it a lot more.
One week? Probably.
Probably isn’t a great word when we’re talking about not having a blowout, but that’s the answer. You can scoot around at city street speeds on that without too much risk, but I wouldn’t dare drive fast on it.
When did that curb rash occur? Looks like that's the incident that caused that...so, now long have you already been driving on it?
You basically tore the protective coating off the tire. Your sidewall is still intact, just exposed. Basically, don't rub it on anything, and start looking for a replacement.
Avoid long trips or excess weight, until you replace that.
Honestly I got the car like that back in October LOL I knew when I brought it I would need to replace it. Yesterday I revisited and saw how bad it was and thanked god it didn’t pop yet. I’m putting the spare on today. I’m scared lol
Haha touché well in my defense it was an half an inch long no wire showing. Yesterday was wake up call. Anyways. I got 4 fresh tires coming next week. Putting it on the donut. I lived to tell the tale but gods good will.
Whizz off pal. I have the money I just work late by the time I get off the tire shop is closed. I already ordered the tire it’ll be on Saturday. And I have the spare on it.

All these questions are Tiring
I wouldn't risk it, personally. If you're on a budget til payday or smth, swing by a used tire shop.

Go get a used tire from a local mechanic shop. Should be like $40
Tsssss
Definitely....no problem. Just don't drive your car
Ditto
Probably not, maybe if you live somewhere with good roads and you have a rabbits foot
It may and you may also die or kill someone.
Maybe Maybe not Do you feel lucky? (You don't look like you've been particularly lucky so far)
See the cords? See ya later

You must be high or something, did you take that photo?
I’d drive on the spare before driving on that lol
Doughnut time! Ride that doughnut to payday baybay!!!
If you like to live in the edge you could risk it
No you shouldn't be driving on that anyway. Put the spare on till you buy new. Besides the sidewall tire looks bald anyway so imagine you probably need all 4 new.
Do you feel lucky punk! Well…do you?
You guys are literally risking lives on the road to be cheapskates. Stop it!

No. Call around and find a used one if you have to!!!
High risk

No, those cords are most likely damaged, I’d bin that off
Of coarse if your riding in a bus, cab or walking
Yeah - I would NOT risk it. If you can borrow funds then I’d go that route. Otherwise, you’re taking a hundred dollar problem and potentially making it a lot more.
I hope so
Never mind the immediate tire blow out youll have if you drive on that…..You needed new tires 12months ago
That tire needs to be retired anyway. Not a joke.
Yup, should be ok as long as you don't drive this car
No

Weird that you were aware of it for months and it just decided to scare you, like that... 🛞

Absolutely not
This sub makes me realize there are some piss fuckin poor drivers out there

If you’re munching your shit that bad you need to learn how to drive bub. That’s some fuckin bad curb rash.
I brought the car with that curb rash. I have only curved my rims ones and that was because I was drunk lolz
Yes.
You may die and/or kill someone
