PE00020, aftermarket tire with 30 miles on them, all tires in total of 13 had flats which needed to be patched up. It seemed that hole was getting bigger. Goodyear dealer said it was due to the heat which was causing rubber to get soft, and easily getting a hole in it. Firestone reimbursed the customer for the tires that had flats. Tire size 255/70R16.
