most hood white kid
i don't even know if that is possible...only real reason I would see this being effective is nitrogen is lighter than air(and I dont eve know if this is true) can someone else comply?

Re: (egcoupe94)
i believe that it is lighter than air, but really im not sure, try the other forum
not only that the weight you would save would be pretty damn miniscule

32 psi makes nitrogen turn to liquid????? Hahahahaha. Good ****. Great morning laugh. The nitrogen bottles we use at work have over 3,000 psi in 'em and it's a gas in the bottles.
The reason people use nitrogen in their tires is because the pressure of nitrogen doesn't fluctuate as much with temperature changes. So if you fill up your tire to 32 psi when it's 35* out it'll be damn close to that pressure when the temp gets to 80*. Great for people that need a consistent tire pressure. Say for example you're at an all day auto-x event that starts early in the morning. Once you dial in your tire pressure in the morning you shouldn't have to worry about it anymore for the rest of the day.
But the liquid at 32 psi thing is great. Thanks.

Re: nitrogen ? (LoganMantits)
but who the hell should care if you are an average driver? Air is something like 75% nitrogen. And so what if a few times a year you have to stop at a free air pump or even one that costs a quarter. It seems like a gimmick created to charge a little more at the tire shop.
