Hit a curb-Original 18" Front Tire- 1200 miles on 4 year old tire.
First Experience with run flats-Thoughts?
Planned to replace this year or next with AS3+.
Left spot in photo is 1/8" deep at very left side of that "bruise".
Any idea of tire thickness in that area?
Wheel repair needed?

Looks fine to me. Run flats from my understanding have thicker side walls; with my Mustang GT on Sumitomos summer tires I hit the curb and lost a big chunk of rubber on the inside of the wheel. It held up fine for many years till I wore the tread and replaced them with Nitto's.
