Nathans a pretty cool guy, Im one of the commercial guys so Im not usually ever there. And if I am, Im in the back busting truck tires or something lol

Nitrogen is said to reduce natural deflation over time that occurs with tires to a practically non existent level, aswell as maintain a more consistent pressure during temperature changes, improve fuel economy, reduce aging effects on the rubber compounds, eliminate moisture in the tire, so no more beak leaks etc.

There are alot of bonuses I have heard to running nitrogen, however I personally dont have any solid proof of the true effects of nitrogen because Im no longer dealing in passenger tires.

But for $5 a tire or whatever it is, if even 1 or 2 of the said bonuses are infact true, then its $20 well spent. Considering tires are one of the most expensive maintenance components, you wanna make sure you get your moneys worth
