Nitrogen Yes Or No

Is nitrogen a good choice or is it worth the money and hassle. Nitrogen has many benefits it maintains tire pressure because the molecules are larger and do not leak as easy. Also heat is not a problem. The biggest advantage I think is that it does not hold moisture so with aluminum rims there would not be a corrosion problem, causing a leak at the bead seal. I believe the front tires are a larger problem with a bead leak because of the stress of front wheel drive and steering. Before FWD there were very little bead leak problems now we see it all the time. Do not use a can of sealant it will not cure the problem and is dangerous and a mess to clean up it will also affect the tire balance.I just stressed checking your tire pressure and since very few of us have nitrogen in our garage it will be a problem to check the pressure of course it would not have to be checked as often. The price runs from $5 to $20 depending on the size it is usually free if you do it with new tires.I just don’t see that it is worth the hassle and cost. I have talked to no one that is impressed that has put it in their tires, so I am going to have to say no to nitrogen.FYI I didn’t mention in my last topic that when you have new tires installed to check the pressure. I know they were just installed but many shops run the tires on the low side so they ride better, similar to moving the seat a ½ notch when you do a tune up they drive different and as we just spent money on it is an improvement.
