Nitrogen? Why use Nitrogen?

Nitrogen is a gas that has many benefits inside your tires. The first major benefit is improved fuel mileage. When your tires are underinflated, they experience more friction when rolling and this causes reduced gas mileage. Nitrogen molecules are larger than regular compressed air. The result is that nitrogen-filled tires are able to retain factory specified air pressures for 3 to 4 times longer. When your tires remain perfectly inflated for longer, this equates to greater miles per gallon.

Nitrogen and Handling

Underinflated tires will experience progressive loss of contact with the road, which affects handling and safety because drivers can lose control.
