Installed a 10" subwoofer in the trunk, still fine tuning the amp but works very well. Trying to figure out how to prevent the rear deck from rattling though.

I was driving on Hwy 290 (Houston) and I hit an object not sure what it was could be a metal and in fraction of a second I had a flat tire. I could barely drive 300 ft and I had to stop in the shoulder. Luckily, there was a tow truck and drove me home (just under 5 miles) took $125 for a flat bed price I guess. He inspected the tire and it had a slit on the front left side, he also said there was no damage to the car except the tire.

Question is does Subaru replaces the tire since the car is just a year old?

i bought some 3m clearcoat wipes that come with a sanding disc that worked really well and was super easy to apply. highly recommended and only like 5 bucks
