Re: Nitrogen Tires
In fact it is true that nitrogen is better than air. However, this is
generally used for fleet operations. The benefits for a passenger car would be minimal. Nitrogen is a "larger" molecule than the oxygen in the air. As a result, the tires will hold their pressure over a longer period of time resulting in less maintenance time to check the tire pressures. This leads to better mileage and better tire tread life with less maintenance effort. The maintenance effort can become very important if you're managing a fleet of vehicles. For a passenger car, just check your pressure regularly and you'll get the same benefits. "Carl S.

Re: Nitrogen Tires
The Mol Wt is not necessarily an indicator of the size of the molecule.
