Doesn't look that bad - looks like your tire's rim protector took the brunt of the damage. You have to go significantly deeper to damage the sidewall IMO.

yeah, you basically hit a very meaty chunk of an area of the tire, that little flare on the side wall where it meets the bead.
the rim, is just an eye sore as well, its up to u to get it fixed or not. if the rim is stock, use it as ur winter rims, and now it gives you an excuse to get some new summertime rims for the car.

You'll be fine, just be glad your tires saved your rims. It could have been way worse.

The tire is actually pretty thick there. Probably ok.
