Default Refill Tires with Nitro

Saw an ad in a local auto publication that was advocating refilling tires with nitro the claim was nitro does not leak and would not cause false readings on cars equipped with monitors. A local Dealer is offering this service for 39.95 4 tires. I never heard of this. Anybody else???

plain and simple, its a marketing thing.
SAMS & Costco do it for FREE on all their tires.

Nitrogen, by definition, is dried gas (moisture removed) so it is more stable in extreme environments, like running at 180 mph around the race track all day long.

Cars that have it, get a green valve cap.

does not leak? huhhh? they actually said that?

take the $40 and go have a steak dinner .. now, that is money well spent.

Thanks for the info and I'll take your advice. A nice NY Strip will do just fine.
