nitrogen filled tires.....how do you add?? is air OK?

Air is made of nitrogen. Use any air pump.

Nitrogen filed tires is a big scam in the tire industry.

unless you have a race car or plane, it's not worth the money or trouble.

try Googling it.

Funny, I googled and it's about 50/50.

I just add air. The only place by me to get nitrogen is at Costco and they will only put it in the tires they've sold.

Just use an air compressor. There's no need to ever worry about the nitrogen for as long as you own the tires. I don't see why anyone would want to make a special trip to a tire store just to get nitrogen in their tires everytime one was low.

Agree and that's my way of thinking.

Any old air is fine. yes Nitrogen is a huge money maker! All my tires have lasted quite a long time with just the Nitrogen in the air.

The question has been posted many times on these forums, and the overwhelming majority respond, ... just use regular air. I agree.

Since both my automobiles are still under warranty and all servicing is covered for 2 years, I don't worry about my tires. They take care of them. But once out of warranty, I have my own air compressor. My last car originally came with nitrogen, but I'm sure when we traded it was all just normal air. My TT tires are all air. I think the "nitrogen" (thing) is just a gimmick, to make you think you need something special. You don't. ... as stated above ... race cars and airplanes, yes, The family RV ... NO!

Gee! we haven't had a post on nitrogen in the RV tires in several weeks. Must be getting close to camping season again...
Is there a bigger scam in the RV world?
