It seems to me like the biggest threat we have to tire life is age, not My TR3 has a beautiful like new set of Michelins, but they're 10 years old. Michelins tells me 6 years is the limit, although i

Nitrogen doesn't react to heat and cold, ergo, the psi remains constant. ** Get a sneak peek of the all-new AOL at http://discover.aol.com/memed/aolcom30tour _________________________________________

Well, sort of. The biggest drawback to using atmospheric air is the water vapor content. Water vapor expands and contracts with temperature change more than other gasses. Dry nitrogen is more stable.

I don't believe this is true. Nitrogen is a gas and at the kinds of pressures we are talking about it can be considered an ideal gas, with pressure, temperature and volume expressed according to the

Actually the main reason to use Nitrogen in a vehicle, that is revelant to us drivers (in layman's terms), is that the molecules for nitrogen are basically larger, and thus do not escape through the

I agree. However, there may be at least some truth to the claim that the pressure changes less with dry nitrogen than with wet air. Water vapor doesn't obey the ideal gas law very well, especially w

Even if those claims are totally true (which I doubt), the claimed difference is minimal. And pretty much vanishes the first time you check your tires. Ever see a tire wear out on the inside first ?

If you'd change the air in your tires every 15,000 miles like it says in the manual the air wouldn't get stale and you'd always start with a fresh charge. -- Jim Muller You can feel the difference.
