GUEST,Telemark BS: nitrogen filled tires; worthwhile? (43) RE: BS: nitrogen filled tires; worthwhile? 24 Jun 06

The rationale I had heard was that oxygen escapes more rapidly than nitrogen. If so, nitrogen would be enriched and would approach (but never reach) 100% through refilling the tires. Moisture could be removed from compressed air; I'm sure that would be cheaper than using bottled nitrogen. Even the theoretical benefits seem miniscule; even for racing tires, I doubt there is any practical benefit of nitrogen over DRY air.
