Ouch, that looks painful. The tire won't be much to deal with, but that scar left in the car isn't funny...

That tire looks like it ran in a chariot race with Ben Hur. So much damage from something small.

What did you have to do to get the car home (or to service)? Tow truck?

The tire is damaged that bad because you drove on it while it was flat...

Too bad your car was damaged. DAT SUX.

Ouch.
Just, ouch.

Good save, though -- with the tire that far gone, it must have been a handful to handle!
Best wishes for an equitable insurance settlement.
