Nitrogen in your tires!

Just got my tires filled with nitrogen. I highly recommend it! The stock Bridgestone Turanza tires ride sooooooo much better now. Try it you won't be dissapointed!

Where are you getting your tires filled with nitrogen. I have heard that it does smooth out your ride as well as not expand/contract with temp. It would be nice to try if it wasn't too expensive, and if you could find someone to do it. So if you could fill us in, that would be great.

Costco fills your tires up with Nitrogen free when you purchase tires from them

I got mine filled at a local tire place for $12 with a tire rotation. It was an american car care center, im not sure if its a chain thing. Apparently a lot of tire places are offering nitrogen now. Your tires may be 78% nitrogen but another 22% makes all the difference.
