Tire sidewall question
 
I just noticed that my 19" diamiris w/ 85% thread left on it has a 2 inch slash on the sidewall. I don't think its deep enough for the tire to loose pressure but should I be concerned about this? Thanks

YES you should be concerned! Get it replaced right away assuming this is really a slash and not a superficial scrape. If you can, dismount it and carry to a tire shop instead of driving it. That sounds like a disaster waiting to happen.
