Use a nitrogen substitute(78% nitrogen).
DEAR GOD NO!!!
That violates the intent of the incredibly smart engineers and voids the warranty of the tires, and is dangerous, becuase it doesn't follow the manual, and risks killing women and children all over the globe!That being said- I have HEARD that Nitrogen is better because it transfers heat better (I call bullcrap since 78%N2 has got to transfer a pretty good fraction of the same amount of heat), AND I HAVE ALSO HEARD THAT MAYBE THE PURE NITROGEN DOESN'T LEAK AS MUCH....
Of course, when I REALLY think about it, if I use 78%N, then the 02 will leak out and the 78% will move closer to pure N.
