I have these Panasonic "Uff Dah" tires on my commuter. No flats until a couple of weeks ago. Slow leak. Turned the tire inside out and used a magnifier to find suspicious breaks in the tire. found a spec and probed with a needle. Extracted a wire from a dremel wire wheel! Its curly feature must have wormed its way through the tire.
