Nitrogen filled tires - Page 3 - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

I just came back from Costco - for a first time fill - all air out, nitrogen in - it costs me $16. All subsequent refills are free. I noticed that the pressure when up only about 1 lb all the way around on the trip home. I the trip to Costco with the "regular" air in the tires, each tire went up 2-3 lbs. Not sure if that is normal for nitrogen or not. My feeling is that it will be inconvenient to keep getting refills there, but I do shop every other week there so maybe dropping her off while I shop won't be so bad. We'll see...

I'm going to pick up my new Camaro today! They asked if I want ted Nitro filled tires. It's $379.00 for life. They said if I use air and get a low pressure warning on the Dash I'll have to get it serviced for $150 every time it happens, but with Nitro that won't happen. Advice?

Wow, that is pure BS! The warning goes away as soon as you add the correct amount of air.
My advice would be not to use that dealer for any service.

Dug this thread up.
Just had my Nitto Invos Nitrogen filled, Friday.
So far I really don't see a differance, My tire pressures still go up 2-3#'s.
the people said Better tire wear
Better Gas Millage
and Better ride. So 30 dollars to See if this works.Free Refills.
Will Give opinion in a week or so.

My tires came stock with nitrogen. Does this vary from dealer to dealer?
