Man, after my last post (below) about buying from a distance and the subsequent war of words between JW and VO and others, I am a bit reluctant to post anything but here goes. Some tire shops around here (Costco for one) uses Nitrogen Gan in your tires when you buy new tires from them. The valve caps are green in color to remind you of this. I don't know whether that is an option or they do it to all their tires. What is the reason for using Nitrogen? I mean, almost 80% of atmospheric gas (which a compressor is pumping into your tires) is nitrogen anyways so why is 100% nitrogen better? And if you need to add air, are they expecting you to find a place that has pure nitrogen?
