Default I think I need a new tire

I'm kinda PO'ed. I bought these tires in January, and they have about 8000 miles on them, and i found a cut in the sidewall of one of the rears. It's not leaking, but I'm afraid the tire is compromised. The way it's cut, it's like a flap on the sidewall. The flap is probably about 1" in diameter, and probably less than 1/8" at the thickest. What do you guys think? I probably should replace it

Also, I know this has been brought up before and I've read all I can, but I haven't found a defintate answer. My tire is between 7-8/32's (actually around 7.3/32's). A new tire is 10/32's. Can I get away with just replacing one side?

The car needs a new top, a car cover, and new tires already. It's just a lot of money all at one time

At 7/32" you can just get the one tire. If I can help let me know.
