[help] flat tire !!

jc220

I hit a pedestrian curb (badly) today. Now I realized that there's a tiny little part of the tire got peeled off. Would it become flat tire?

If it does become flat tire tomorrow morning, who should I call to get the tire fixed?

the tire is not flatted this morning! (yeah!)
so i went to two different repair store in Richmond to get it checked by the experts. Surprisingly the technicicans from both places said I do not have to get a new tire. O_O!   They said that the damaged spot is not a significant place to worry about and blah blah blah...

but still.. I think changing it would make myself feels better. what do you guys think?

i know my tires are not good for snow and I've to travel to port coquitlam quite often. do you guys think i should get winter tires or all seasons/weathers tires?

if i change my tire, where do you recommend i get it done?

i know nothing about tires and apparently i don't have any friends who are car experts. so you guys are my only hopes. thanks!

BiscottiGelato & shuttlebug: i 100% agree with you guys. sometimes those people are really annoying and they just love to assume this and that and thus criticize people. unfortunately these people are everywhere and now also on the internet... how annoying. Anyway, i think ignoring them would be the best response to them... if nobody talks to them, sooner or later they will find themselves stupid, then shut up and go away.
