And that gas is called Nitrogen. Thats what they are trying to get us to use at the shop. They want us to fill all tires with nitrogen as it doesnt permeate through the rubber like air does. Only one set back tho. Who is going to pay money to fill their tires when plain ole compressed air does the job.
Sorry about the digression. Moral is Nitrogen is up and coming but it costs versus air.
