Does a missing chunk of tire tread have any impact?

Tire tread missing a chunk does have an impact. Here are the relevant details about tire tread peeling: 1. Tread surface peeling: If a small piece peels off the tread pattern, it's not a major issue for daily driving, but high-speed driving is not recommended. 2. Sidewall peeling: If the sidewall peels, it's advisable to replace the tire because the sidewall is the weakest part of the tire. If the fabric layers are exposed, it becomes quite dangerous and highly prone to blowouts. For safety reasons, it's generally recommended to install a new tire. If the damage depth and width are less than 3mm, the tire can be demoted to spare tire use.
