A part of my tire also decided to leave, so this is why you see black tape. (Tire glue drying under it)

No way to fix, also if you feel you need to put tape on the sidewall you should probably just get a new 1 as it could be a ticking time bomb

You can get the wheel refinished but that's a very small scratch imo. Not worth the expense since curb rash happens to pretty much every single car ever driven

If that tire is missing a chunk, I'd advise spending I that first.

If you can't stand the wheel imperfection, a wheel shop should be ale to fix it for probably under $100

I will replace it with a new tire.

Holey shit!! (pun intended)
Please do fix that asap. Never seen a chunk that big out of a tire without it popping

#

For real that's dangerous to drive on

#

If you HAVE TO drive it to the tire shop, drive slow like Paul Wall said
(Paul Wall is a rapper only a washed individual would quote in 2024)

myself if possible

Nope. I would take it to a wheel repair shop.

#

They know best and do a good job

Any progress in this? You might even have wheel warranty since this is a new car
