THE FRONT TIRES REPEATLY (EVERY 3-4 MONTHS) LOOSE AIR AND GO FLAT. WE HAVE HAD SEVERAL TIRES OF THE SAME TYPE DO THIS. ACCORDING TO SEARS AND SUBARU, THIS IS THE ONLY TIRE TYPE THAT FITS A JUSTY. WE HAVE ALSO REPLACED ONE RIM. SEARS AND SUBARU HAVE LOOKED AT FLATS AND SAY NOTHING IS WRONG. WE SIMPLY REPAIR WITH FIX-A FLAT, CHECK AIR PRESSURE AND THEN THE TIRE IS GOOD FOR MONTHS. RECENTLY A TIRE WENT FLAT IN A TUNNEL. THIS IS A DANGEROUS PROBLEM. THE TIRE WILL INSTANTLY LOOSE ALL AIR. WE THINK IT COULD BE WHEN THE CAR IS PARKED AND THE WHEELS ARE TURNED INTO A CURB ON A HILL AND THEN WHEN YOU DRIVE THE TIRE GOES FLAT SEVERAL MILES DONW THE ROAD (POSSIBLY THE TIRE HAS LOST SOME AIR ALREADY BY BEING PARKED AGAINST THE CURB). (TIRESIZE: P165/65R13)
