Tire pressure
We sell Nitrogen Services at my dealership, and it's almost fifty bucks. Regular air in tires has been working for years, why would we need to change it all of a sudden? I adjust the tire pressure on a vehicle every time I do an oil change, and I do not see Nitrogen being any more stable than regular air in the tire. The tires seem to lose just as much Nitrogen as they do regular air every 3000 miles. Plus when tires need to be replaced, I wouldn't wanna be whacked another $50 every time, just to put this "high and mighty" golden air into my tires. From my experience, regular air in an everyday vehicle works just fine. Now I can understand it is a different situation for high performance vehicles, or vehicles such as the GTR. The GTR requires Nitrogen in it's tires due to the fact that it was concluded when it was built, that based on the tires/wheels suspension etc equipped on that vehicle, that regular air is too unstable to be using in a vehicle such as that. One thing I have learned is that no matter what sort of modifications you wanna do to a vehicle, you always seem to be going full circle to only arrive back at the fact that the OEM design usually works best. They test these vehicles for days, to come up with a platform that they do.

I run 34 psi all around and nitrogen is a waste of money in my opinion. It's not that hard to check your tire pressure once a week for pressure drop. I just checked my pressure after almost 2 months and it didn't move from 34.
for road driving, its just marketing.
other than losing pressure slower… theres not much point spending the money. and besides, you need to top it up with hydrogen…
toping up with air will render the hydrogen useless.
its even worse than installing canards on the car for street driving… at least canards can be for aesthetic purposes. but hydrogen in your tyre… a fashion statement?
they advertise hydrogen doesn't rust out steel rims like air since air can contain moisture… put it this way, i had never personally seen a rusty rim in all the 25 years of owning cars.
plus, air is free…
