There are minor benefits to nitrogen in the tires.....however, I wouldnt pay an extra penny to do it.

I already have 78% Nitrogen in my tires, with some Neon, Krypton, and even Helium which makes my car lighter as well.

It was free at my local gas station.

If it was free or cheap I'd say yeah, would be nice to not have to check pressure as the temp changes so much...But i'll be damned if i'll pay what they charge to air up with N...

It's called to each their own. I think the Nitrogen is worth it

Helium takes about 200 pounds of curb weight away, so it is the best mod you can do for the price.


I kid!
