when i got my wheels/ tires mounted and balance over at a place in fremont, down the street from the walmart near frys, they recommended to use nitrogen.
if you need to get nitrogen Daniel, i cant remember the name of the place but they have it there. simply go go down osgood, pass walmart and youll see a tire shop on your right.

Must of been at Bruce's Tires. I had them mount some tires over at their SJ location and had them put in Nitrogen.

If it's free, why not go for it? If it costs money, you need to ask yourself if your car is really a high speed track car, whose career balances on a few PSI in the tires. If that's not your situation, it's a waste of money.
Oh, and like Paul said, it'll make your car flip due to the antigravity properties
(I actually remember that thread!)

I don't need nitrogen, I was just curious as to why it's always mentioned in car rags when they review high end cars... Why is that even worth mentioning? I figured it was more important then it really is which is why I asked.
