I've had pretty good luck maintaining tire pressure with the stock 'Van's' tire/tube setup....adding air a couple times a year, when winter comes etc.
Now I see one main is not holding as well. Is it worth using Nitrogen? ( hard to get at the airport!!!)
.......or is this just a tire shop marketing ploy?...I mean, heck, the atmosphere is 78% Nitrogen anyway, how big a diff could it make replacing the other 22%?
I'm already offended having to put 50 cents in the pump at the gas station for dirty damp compressed air for my car!....now they want $2 for Nitrogen!
would like to hear who is using Nitrogen, in cold climates, if there is any difference? Why not Helium?![Smile :) :)](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
