nitrogen tyres.

So much missinformation and bullsh!t on this thread 

Pure N2 is more thermally stable - so as your tyres get hot, the pressures don't change as the water content boils off.
That's the only advantage of it.

And on a road car, with road tyres...it makes absolutely NO difference.
You'll not get the tyres hot enough.

Beat me to it.

Tried it in karting and didn't really think it was worth the hassle. But the difference from aluminium to magnesium wheels is huge. Heat comes on faster and due to low volume it stays at the correct heat and pressure for longer, giving me 5 fast laps instead of 1/2

Thank you, Glen. Like I said no benefit on a daily road going vehicle.

one of my tyers is filled with pure argon  rest are nitrogen

notice performance diffrence  - no
notice tyers staying at pressure longer - no  tyers dont last that long


why - lots of wind in a small bottel and very convinent
