I accidentally hit a curb and damaged the sidewall of my tyre. It is a Pirelli Winter Sottozero 3, 235/45 R18 98V XL M+S, fitted to a 2021 Tesla Model 3.
The damaged section is close to the rim and part of the rubber is still attached.
There is no bulge, pressure loss, vibration or visible air leak. I have driven approximately 20 km since the impact without noticing any problems.
Does this look like damage limited to the rim-protection rubber, or is the sidewall structurally compromised? Should I replace it immediately? If replacement is necessary, can I replace only this tyre if the other one on the same axle still has approximately 5–6 mm of tread?

I accidentally hit a curb and damaged the edge of my tyre, as shown in the photos.
It’s a Pirelli Winter Sottozero 3, 235/45 R18 98V XL, fitted to a Tesla Model 3. The damaged part appears to be mainly the rim-protection ridge.
I can’t see any cords or internal fibres, there is no bulge, and the tyre isn’t losing pressure. I have driven around 20 km since it happened without any noticeable problems.
Would you continue using it, or replace it? If it needs replacing, would you replace only this tyre or both tyres on the same axle?

Hey everyone! I’ve just uploaded a video from two days in the Lofoten Islands, travelling with my girlfriend.

I’m trying to make my English voiceovers feel more natural while keeping a cinematic travel style. I’d genuinely appreciate feedback on the pacing, audio balance and whether the title/thumbnail make you want to watch.

Here’s the video: The Lofoten Islands Don’t Look Real

Thanks!

I’m struggling with low CTR and I can’t figure out what I’m doing wrong with my packaging.

I make outdoor photography / wildlife / gear videos, and my latest one is about testing the DJI Osmo Action 6 during a photography walk.

The video got some impressions (1300), but the CTR is sitting around 1-1.3%, which seems very low. I’ve been trying to improve my thumbnails and titles, but I feel like I’m missing something obvious.

Would you click this? If not, what is the main reason?

I’m especially looking for feedback on:

- title clarity

- thumbnail text

- whether the concept is interesting enough

- what promise/curiosity is missing

I’m not looking for subs or views, just honest packaging feedback because I keep running into the same CTR problem.
