Default tyre question

I hit a rock on my way to work today and it put a buldge in it. THe question I have is: can i get a replacement for it for a little while until I get all new ones. If so will it hurt to buy one that is not the same make??

Thanks,
Gib

Default Buy the same make/model tire. If the tread depth is noticably different

from the new to the old ones, i believe you can have the new one shaved down.
