I'm sure most of you guys know about this. Interesting reading. I hope I can get this done in my car, just sounds cool if nothing else lol.
I only found one or 2 old threads on this and thought I would see who is running it now. And give you some info to read up there in the pdf.

I was hoping that no one on this site was stupid enough to fall for this scam... The only reason race cars use it is because it contains less moisture so they don't gain as much pressure as if they were just filled with air, but they still gain pressure. And were talking tires that are 175+ degrees, street cars will never get close that.

eh well as for nitrogen, i know we use it in aircraft tires because it doesn't expand or contract much if at all with changes in altitude, but aircraft go a little higher then most cars i think, don't quote me on that tho.

Don't race cars use nitrogen too. I think it will help you know one day its 70 and the next day is 30 you could lose some psi in your tires, and this effect would be much less with Nitrogen I would think.
