Only have about 400 miles on the car. Unfortunatley got this by backing out from a tight garage enterance. Haven't lost any PSI so far and dont see any chords. General concensus seems to be that is okay for low profile tires as they are intentionally designed to to protect the rims. For the model Y the rims seems to be doing the protecting for the tires...lol. Debating if I should continue driving and monitoring the wheel and replacing it once the othe back tire wares down. Thoughts?

This forum is almost as dull as the Toyota Avalon forum (actually, it's not even close...HAHA).
We need trivial discussions to keep our heart rates up!

This thread is hysterical.
The OP posts a single photo, showing damage from a poor angle, and 35 posts later, we're still bickering about a solution. The only real tire (truck) expert is being dismissed by some as being irrelevant.
The OP must be sitting back, watching this, with multiple servings ofand

I actually detest these type of threads, on a personal level. They seem specifically designed to do exactly what is happening in this thread.

Yeah getting safety advice from random “experts“ on a forum is definitely smart. Trust me, I have been a doctor for 30 years, would you like me to tell you how to treat a random pain. Trust me why would I steer you wrong!

Most Reddit posts are exactly like this. To be sure, TMC is a cut above ... but not immune.

Counterintuitive Surprise! Weaker Bonds Can Make Polymers 10x Stronger
By adding weak linkers to a polymer network, chemists dramatically enhanced the material’s resistance to tearing. A team of chemists from MIT and Duke University has discovered a counterintuitive way to make polymers stronger: introduce a few weaker bonds into the material. Working with a type
