R56 Nitrogen filled tires ???
Watch for roaming nitrogen thieves
The last time I got new tires for my vehicle, the tire dealer inflated my new tires with nitrogen for "free". Once a month I could stop by, show my receipt and have my tire pressures checked and filled with nitrogen if needed. The valve stem caps had a green dot in the center, which he claimed they used to indicate that the tires were filled with nitrogen. Later I found out that roaming bands of nitrogen thieves were stealing the nitrogen out of peoples' tires to re-sell in back alleys. These thieves used the green dots on the valve stems to know which tires had nitrogren in them and which didn't. So if you do get nitrogen in your tires and they use the caps with the green dots, you might want to replace them with regular black caps to keep from finding the nitrogen stolen from your tires.
It's amazing the BS that some people will believe.

So, if you're drinking the Kool-Aid, then it is totally acceptable for you to spend 20 to 30 dollars on Nitrogen, when the everyday air that we breathe is made up of just shy of 80% Nitrogen.
Think about that, people.
You're willing to spend nearly 30 bucks, for just 20% more Nitrogen than you're already getting for free.
If you STILL think this is a good idea, I have a bridge in Brooklyn that I'll sell you really cheap!
Also, did you know that the word "Gullible" isn't even in the dictionary?

And another thing. If you're following the manufacturer's recommendation for PSI from the door sticker, how much do you have to add when running that extra 20% nitrogen? The door sticker is the cold PSI, when using normal air, which will increase in pressure from heat. Having this wonder air that isn't going to increase as they heat up, you'll need to up the psi a few pounds. I'll stick to the stock air and not void my warranty.
