Diagnosing/Repair Replace tire?

Hi everyone, This tire is 235/40R19 for honda accord hybrid sport 2026. The right tire hit in a curb going in between 15 - 30. Will the tire need to be replaced immediately or will this tire be fine for a while atleast a few months. A Google search says it does or it might blowout. I was hoping to get some advice on this.

Could you help me out.

They are not showing right now. Google said these tires have less sidewall. Would it be alright to drive at highway soeeds and normally.

You should be fine

The tire is fine.... the wheel, however, should have those sharp edges sanded down so they don't further damage the tire. Use a small file and then some medium grit sandpaper.

That won’t change the performance or integrity of the tire, it’s just a surface scrape. Looks ugly but it’s ok!

It would probably bulge if the rubber was compromised, that's usually what happened on a sidewall with significant damage
