The thing about nitrogen around here is that it has a lot of water. What I use is a air line cleaner dehumidifier for your tires.

Are you talking about AIR? or nitrogen? You aren't really making sense.

I think you need to read up a little on what you are speaking of, it seems you don't have a clue.

Eddie, put helium in your tires for less unsprung weight or pure carbon dioxide if you need the extra weight for traction.

I prefer helium in the fronts and carbon dioxide in the rears. It gets a good launch and pulls the front tires. For a FWD car that probably wouldn't work as well.

That's fine for you drag racers, but the road guys need adjust the shock rebound and damping to match the purity of the helium/CO2.




Gawd, are we full of shit.
