Like your father hit crowds or like you used to hit your father?

Could be both if his father WAS a crowd like the movie Twins.

This happened to two rear tires?

Edited to add: looks like the same shot of the same tire to me.

It's wise to replace just in pairs if there is much wear time on the set.

Apparently some have not priced a 305 series tire outside of a Nitto or Firestone or Sumitomo recently. If anyone thinks that's expensive for Michelins they better rethink ownership of a GT350 or put Nankangs on theirs next go around.

Just noticed either someone hates my car or I ran over some debris. These tires have less than 4300 miles on them. Guess I’m having a burn down party tomorrow.

Damn the luck!!

Looks like slashing marks Cory.

Hope the perp has moved on and won’t comeback for the new ones

So I dismounted the tire and used Flex Seal. Should be good to go.

Is that safe at highway speeds and hardcore driving ? I might try it if it happens to me one day ! Or a temporary fix?

You know, I've had my tires slashed, and the cuts don't look anything like that.

It looks to me like the OP went over a piece of road debris with a spike in it. The spike penetrated the tread at an angle and exited through the sidewall. Whatever was holding the spike stayed put, pulling the spike back out and leaving a damaged tire. And yes, it's damaged beyond repair.
