Can’t be repaired.
Don’t take the risk.
That looks dangerous. Replace it. Your safety is worth more than the cost of a new tire.
That’s a deep cut. I wouldn’t risk it.
It’s fine until it’s not. And when it’s not, it’s a big problem.
It could be worse. The sidewall rubber is there to protect against damage. I’d leave it as is.
Any sidewall damage means you need a replacement ASAP. Be careful driving to the shop.
Replace it. Don’t take chances.
Looks tearable.
The sidewall supports the car’s weight. Replace the tire. It shouldn’t cost more than $200.

Times four. With AWD, they’ll likely make you replace all tires.
Thanks everyone! I have a warranty on it. Heading to the shop soon!
Be ready to buy four new tires. That’s what they’ll make you do with AWD.

Appointment tomorrow. Fingers crossed.
This forum isn’t the best place for advice. Go to a tire shop and let them check it. They’ll know better.
Not good. Replace it before it leaves you stranded.
Replace both tires on that axle. Never replace just one.
If you don’t see cords, just be more careful around curbs next time.

This is the only right answer. No cords showing? Safe to drive.
Nothing to worry about.
