Yes I am a little geeky . I've gone over this before with quite a few people and have done my research. Now if offered it for free, I won't turn it down but I won't pay for it. |

I'm glad someone else remembers this. This equation shows you that pressure change is COMPLETELY INDIFFERENT to the type of gas being used as temperature increases/decreases. Verdict: Nitrogen is a waste of $40 |

I'm told that tire shops, and other places will put green valve stem caps on your car to signal you have nitrogen inflated tires... My car has green caps on it, but I can't confirm or deny or confirm they're nitrogen filled.
The pressure fluctuates about 6 psi when cold, and after driving for a while... Most places around here charge $5 a tire to fill with nitrogen. I say it's a waste of money, especially if you plan to go to the drag strip and you need to let your nitrogen out of your rear tires. |

Unless they draw a vacuum first, which would potentially damage the tire, you're still not getting 100% nitrogen.

Well. You could take the tires into a nitrogene filled environment and do it that way.

There's a lot of information on the net about Air vs. Nitrogen. Bottom line, ether way, you should be checking tire pressure periodically. Nitrogen may have some advantages but probably not worth the expense if you are maintaining your tires properly anyway. On the other hand, if you can get nitrogen for free, go for it.
Should I use nitrogen in my car tires? Inflating car tires: Air or nitrogen? Is it better to fill your tires with nitrogen instead of air?
