Nitrogen.
Whilst having the tyres fitted to my new 17'' rims,
the fitter asked if I would like to try them filled
with Nitrogen, normally £1:50 per tyre, but I had
It for free, as a trial.
Apparantly It reduces the tyre wear by 25%,
holds the pressure consistently, and pressures
are hardly effected by heat.
Quote from the Tyre Industry.
Tyres filled with Nitrogen will maintain their correct pressure for longer,
because Nitrogen doesn't leak through the tyre's structure.
Normal compressed air contains Oxygen and water vapour, both of which permeate through the tyre casing.Filling with Nitrogen will provide,
Better road holding
Longer tread life, up to 25% increase
Reduced fuel consumption, up to 5% reduction
No corrosion to the inside of the wheel
