Nitrogen in tires???
Any of you fill your tires with nitrogen???? If so, any good results?? I heard many dealers are promoting it but recently read that it makes little difference......

I think the main reason for Nitrogen is that it is more stable and wont expand or contract like normal air will.

I have it in mine, ride is good ( 20") I dont think a noticeable difference, but if it helps with air loss and stability for no extra price I'm all for it.

Reading this, it seems like it's pretty useless, especially if you've got tire sensors, which we all do.
