    My dealership adds nitrogen to every car and they still change air pressure. For kicks i put it in my car and I've had to add air when it goes hot to cold quick. Its not worth the money one bit

    You also have to fill tire correctly you cannot just add nitrogen. You first fill the tire up with nitrogen and then un-screw the check valve let all the air nitrogen just about out the oxygen will come out first. Then refill the tire with nitrogen

      I can also explain many other benefits of nitrogen 4-10% percent increase in fuel economy. 30-40% increase in tire longevity (age). I only have to check air in the tires every 4-6 months.Nitrogen does escape just at a slower rate due from the molecule is larger. I primary like to use nitrogen in trailer tires. Trailer tires usually rot before there used up. The air we breathe is 70% nitrogen 29% oxygen 1% other gases.

      I'm not trying to sell anyone on nitrogen the cost is way to high to make it practical. Is it a better product the answer is yes. Jay Leno user nitrogen in all his cars as well.
      Based on air pressure staying closer to correct? Otherwise, I'd love to see any science behind that. Smells like B.S.

        Nitrogen is suppose to be more stable at higher and lower temperatures, but will still change pressure based on temperature just not as drastically. I'd like to think the main benefit would be removing moisture from the gas going into the tires

        I'd like to have nitrogen eventually but I always end up using the free air at quick trip and I can feel it spitting water out of the hose so I know the filtration sucks.

        Plus they only have Costco or dealers using it

          Yes its based purely on rolling resistance related to the tire pressure. Add regular air enough and you get the same mpg.
