I can fix a broken, not running car with 2 rolls of duct tape, and drive it 100 miles back home...
I also can fix brake fluid leak, loose braking power in 2 wheels and fix it with one rusty wise grip tool, and drive 70 miles back home...

I did both during my crazy years...was it a good or safe fix? Would I suggest anyone to do that? Definitely NO, and NO.

Bicycles have only 2 wheels, and any tire/tube/rim failure can be potentially catastrophic. It's a 21st century, and we don't need to act like we are stuck in 19th or 20th...
I base my previous opinion on the 2 pictures. It seems that there is a very sharp kink...I don't have these tires in my hand, so it's up to OP to decide.
