help SES light

about a week ago i've been hearing this high pitched squeal sound while accelerating the tiniest bit, that turns into a bit of a whistling sound with a bit more gas. if i floor it, or give it some moderate acceleration, theres nothing abnormal about it. the sounds seem to originate from my front left wheel. then the other day as i walked towards my parking spot at my school, i noticed my front right wheel is a bit deflated. then today, while driving (slowly because of the rain) the SES light comes on, but theres nothing apparantly wrong with the car, other than the noise still being there. are these events related or am i just really paranoid?

Autozone is the way to go. They'll pull the codes on that SES light for free. Then you'll know if its related to your other problems and if you should take it to a mechanic.
