Nothing new to add to this but it was an opportunity to revive a memorable
message from the good Dr McNelis on this topic last year:

Subject: [6pack] Re: Nitrogen
Hey, I am here to attest! I have been running all my tires on 78%
nitrogen for YEARS, and I LOVE IT! It is easy to obtain, cheap, and it
works!
I have heard of using 100% nitrogen, but that is too expensive for my
tastes. I find that a mix of about 78% nitrogen plus a smattering of
miscellaneous other gasses works just fine for me.

Subject: [6pack] Nitrogen in Tires
I just had my new tires installed on the TR6 and the tire shop is now
offering nitrogen as an "air" option. This shop was also featured in the
local newspaper with a big article about the benefits of using nitrogen. I
wasn't willing to spend the $50 which came down to $25 by the end of the
installation but wonder if anyone, other than racers, use nitrogen and
notice a difference. I know that racers use it to maintain a constant air
pressure regardless of heat but how about for everyday use? Is it worth it?
