OT Tires

A local tire store in town is advertising that they now fill their customers tires with Nitrogen instead of air.

Is there really a benefit to this or is this just another gimmick to getpeople to buy tires there.

My experiences in the roundy-round type racing world taught me that nitrogen was "dry" and tire pressure changed less with heat. The rest of those claims posted on the tire store website I am leery of.

Hi Bill. We ramvites (and anyone with a ACVW) check for tire pressure more often than checking for milk in the fridge, so IMHO, we don't need N2 to keep it stable. Anyways, we don't tend to drive (or brake) as fast as to make a difference in temperature or pressure something significant. Maybe it's just another gimmick.
