jumped the curb today and there's a small tear on tire
I was in a hurry and apparently I turned too fast and right rear tire jumped the curb.
And I just noticed that there's a small tear on the side of the tire shown in the picture.
Should be worried?
Do I have to get a new tire?
Thanks for any info.

I still can't post picture...

If you think a good mechanic is expensive, try hiring a bad one

Is there a chunk of rubber you can lift to show us how deep it is?
From here it looks superficial.....need to know how deep it went.

^Agreed.^
Superficial.
Keep on driving, and stay away from curbs.
