Nitrogen Filled TiresNitrogen is a non-flammable, dry gas that keeps your tire properly inflated longer than "plain old air".Nitrogen provides better maintenance of tire pressure which maximizes: • Fuel Economy • Safety & Reliability • Tire Life • Handling ... and it's better for the environment! Tire Pressure Because of its larger molecular size, nitrogen migrates through a tire three to four times slower than oxygen. A tire filled with "plain old air" will lose 1.5 PSI in less than a month; with nitrogen, this could take three months or longer. Fuel Economy Proper tire pressure lessens rolling resistance and maximizes fuel efficiency. Tire Life Under-inflated tires wear quickly on the shoulders and over-inflated tires wear in the center. In addition, removing oxygen eliminates oxidation and condensation that can damage inner liners, stell belts and rims. Safety & Reliability Uner-inflated tires cause 90‰ of blowouts. Nitrogen provides more reliable pressure for reduced blowout potential. Handling Proper tire inflation ensures the recommended "contact patch" of your tire is on the road. ... and it's better for the environment! Anything that improves fuel efficiency and reduces toxic emissions is good for the environment and nitrogen in your tires will help. Go ahead, "top it off!" It's best to use nitrogen in your tires whenever possible, but if you run into a situation where you can't get it, no problem. Go ahead and"top off" your tires with air. When you get a chance, head back to the dealer who inflated your tires with nitrogen for a refill. $164 a year in Fuel Savings • 15,000 miles per year • 20 mpg = 750 gallons • $4 gallon = $3,000 • 5.8‰ fuel savings = $164 $62 a year in Increased Tire Life • Average tire $150 x 4 • Extends life 31‰ = $186 • Average tire lasts 3 years = $62 Increased Safety • 50-70 deaths and 10,000 • injuries occur each year due • to under inflated tires PLEASE CALL ONE OF OUR LOCATIONS NEAR YOU FOR NITROGEN AVAILABILITY.
