Tire sidewall damage (photos included.) Should I replace?	Sign In

There are a couple of recent nicks, tears and dents on the sidewalls of the front tires of my 2006 Camry.

Here are photos of the front right tire damage.

Here is a photo of the front left tire damage.

Do any of the tires merit replacing? Thanks in advance.

Yes, you have some pretty serious damage there. You need to replace them and start being a little more careful of the curb. You tore the wheels up pretty good too
