Fix-a-flat is not designed for long-term use. Also, it contains R-143a, which is supposed to be properly removed from an AC system, but they would not be able to do that with a tire. Oil Pan actually put R-143a in a tire. I just asked if he noticed any damage.
This is from a tire shop, so understand they may be biased, but they say they cannot guarantee Fix-a-flat did not damage a tire, so they insist on replacement, and it can damage the rim.

Also, people say it can damage Tire Pressure Systems, even though the can says it is safe. More negativity here:
