Nitrogen in tires

It's been kinda slow on the ORG so I thought I would start a new thread.

What do you guys think of filling the tires with ~93% Nitrogen?
Been reading up on this and have found 1 problem with the idea- $$ to fill them up, from $2-$5 per tire. Seems like a good idea to me. Let the debate begin.....

costco does it for free. supposed to lead to less pressure loss and wheel/tire rotting due to less/no moisture

Not only that but they claim that since the gas heats up less there is less roll resistance which will improve wear and gas mileage.

Looks like a win win situation all around

as far as costco-I'll look into it. I know costco carries the RSA's we'll see if I can get them to do it for free. They will only do tires they sold at costco. Maybe they will do tires that they carry there and won't look into it too much.

It makes some sense to move this post, but It was related to the RSA's on the 6th gen...whatever...won't argue
