Nitrogen for Tires [Merged]

[minero]

sir mey0r thanks for the info on nitro. i guess it really pays to use nitro than compressed air. kaya pala mabagal bumaba ang TP ng Santa Fe ko dahil nitro filled ang tires. Yung Jazz bilis bumaba ng TP.

You made me a believer in using nitro in tires.

for me, ok ang nitro sa tires... im currently using it in our vios and altis, no significant difference on fuel economy and tire life. pero once nung i have all my 45 series tires check, then napalitan ng regular compressed air ung laman, medyo nabawasan ung pagkastiff nung ride, but as soon as i have them refilled with nitro again, its back to the stiff ride, oks lang, may pagkatamad din ako magcheck ng tp kase eh...

tp is 32 for nitro and panandalian compressed air

OT: balik again sa alog utak ride miss those stock 70 series tires

amazing how 20% of nitro makes a whole lot of difference on the mind.. after all 80% of normal air is nitrogen.. and i swear by that 80%. its free pa..

I agree. But I doubt if those Nitro Generators would be able to produce 100% pure Nitro. 93-97% is more likely.

the power of suggestion, you gotta love it...

Naisip ko lang, what if you get a flat?

Mga sir,

Is it nice to try nitrogen on SUV's like pajero or fortuner? Will i feel the difference?

TIA

THE SCIENCE

Because nitrogen molecules are slightly larger and less permeable than oxygen and all the other gases in air, it migrates considerably slower through a tire. It might take a truck or bus tire inflated with nitrogen about three months to lose two psi, whereas even a well-maintained tire inflated with compressed air will lose, on average, about two psi per month.

Your scientific premise is seriously FLAWED. How could Nitrogen be larger than Oxygen when its atomic Weight and Number are lower? Check this Periodic Table.

After Oxygen, the next most common gases in air are Argon (Atomic No. 18) and CO2 (even bigger than Argon).

If I were your professor, I'd give you an F for b#%sh^ting.

E kung Helium na lang kaya??? It weighs less than Nitro and Oxy. Will it make your car "lighter"? :grin2:

[cocoy]

i think the best conclusion to this topic is that if you use nitrogen in your tires you will surely feel the difference in your pocket. heheheeh

[aejhayl17]

edi mas magaan ang pockets...alaws na laman eh

why not our exhaust fumes/gasses, since it only damage Mother Earth? why not store it in our tires? hehehe can that be posible? di ata

gud day

Haha. Now THAT's an idea. But I think unless you own a monster truck whose inflated tire mass is significant compared to the vehicle mass it won't make much difference.

Besides, who knows what compounds go into making today's modern tires. Helium might be bad for them.

i'd tried nitrogen into my tires with 50 series and masasabi ko lang... medyo nanibago ang ride at first....but i guess it was only mind over matter that i'm feeling that day kasi uwi ako ng cavite....matagtag pa rin. sayang 75 petot ko for each tire...
"bull-sheep"(find this kind of animal..)

what i'm concerned of is how would we know that its nitrogen inside the tank?... baka kasi pa-utot lang ng ibang shop tapos compress air lang din naman pala yun.
