Both the tire and wheel look fine. That's not enough damage to bend an OEM wheel and the part that crumpled is not even touching the tire but I would break it down and grind that part away just for looks and to get a better view of it and the tire, and as for the tire; it's not leaking or bulging so I doubt if any cords were damaged and there is no strength in the rubber itself so it just looks like it's compromised. Personally I probably wouldn't dump any money into it depending on how it looked after closer inspection.

Concur on the tire. The belts are not visible, so they were not cut. Simply monitor it.

Regarding the wheel - my only concern would be that each revolution has alot of flexure of the tire. I'm not sure the sharp edges of the lip would not chafe the tire. Furthermore, hard to tell regarding the lip - but remember the wheel lip is there to hold the tire bead (and enable it to hold air and shape). If that's a portion of the lip you may have lost some bead retention. Obviously if half of the circumference of rim lip were gone, the tire would flop out. If only 1 mm of bead retention were gone - I think we'd all agree no problem. Somewhere in between those two numbers is a threshold where the bead retention function is challenged. I'm thinking that's 2 inches or so. I'd likely repair the wheel myself.

Nah, look closely, that is just the curb protector lip and the damage is not even touching the tire. I little grinding and polishing for looks and you're back in biz...…...all superficial.
