I had mine done today while I got my first oil change. $9.95 with coupon

and free top offs for life (of the tires I expect).

If it's only going to cost me $5... maybe.

Even air is almost never free these days. I only know of one service station where the air hose isn't connected to a coin operated compressor.:(

Well your gonna pay $20 for all 4 to get probably 3/4 filled with nitro.

cause they ain't gonna empty them flat, vacuum out of the air then fill em.

Then what? hopfuly only $2-3 per tire when you need them topped off.

If your a car guy, invest in a air compressor.

I got a 3.5hp 6gal $100 one, 5+ years of uses, with addon tanks I painted my car. Can sandblast all day long. [volume is all you need, not a $10,000 machine that makes up for the lack of volume]

I've good a good relationship with the dealership and the people that work there. I'm going to see about free top-offs.

I would never get enough use out of it to justify the cost.

Just called two dealers here in town, Gerry Lane (What A-HOLES!, because I am a woman, they did the "little lady" talking down to me,

) and Allstar, both charge $49.95 plus tax for all four.

But I just found this place closer to where I live for $39.95, woohoo!!! Bryan's Place Auto!

Just save your money. Buy a pump that plugs into the cig lighter and just keep your tires inflated to the correct level if you don't have access to a full size compressor.

Had it for a while now. Not that big of a deal, but I find that I don't have to adjust the pressure as often. Get big temperature swings in the desert and the car stays consistent, but my trucks have a pretty big variation. Not such a big deal in the trucks since the tires are bigger, but I would hate to screw up a rim with low profile tires. I also hate getting nagged by the TPMS. If I happen to leave out at night, it may complain but it will be happy as the day heats up. Got it for free when I bought, but didn't get it put in for a few months. Not a big hassle since they top it off as needed.
