To keep it short, I ran over a relatively deep hole this afternoon and I noticed a pop on the front driver-side tire. I heard from friends that the particular tire is pretty much history. Is that true?

If so, I am planning to get another set of tire. I don't quite like the Yokohama stock tires (too much road noise). Can anyone recommend some good quality tires?

By the way, I have a 2008 GS350.
Here is the pictures I took on the damaged tire:

I live in the Bay Area and I plan to bring my car to Exact Motorsports next weekend. Will that be too late? If so, I can take a day off during the week to get it replaced ASAP.

Thanks in advance.
