Is my tire OK?

I saw this earlier by chance as I was stepping out.

I'm no tire expert, but I would not trust that tire longer than it would take me to get it replaced.

Do you know what caused it? Did it rub the wheel well?

I have no idea what happened, I don't even remember curb rashing the wheel ever tbh. I actually went on a 3-4 hr drive a day ago on this unknowingly so happy I didn't die lol 😅

Oh yeah I didn't notice the rash on the wheel too when I first watched the video. It does look like it got curbed pretty hard there. Did anyone else drive your car? Valet maybe?

I have replaced tires with a lot less damage than that. So replace it!
That thing is severely damaged and most likely will let go when you are driving fast. We didn’t buy these cars to drive slow.
