lucky u if its free, cost 7 bucks each tire here? did it my R31 has it done and the tires last way longer and doesnt leak out as easy. no water vapor also keeps the rims from rotting inside... ps it also is the same tech as aircraft tires use for high speed and to keep the temps from blowing tires.....do it for sure mate

im going to when i can afford and remember to go get it done before summer.

The new GTR has Nitrogen filled tires, I think its a 70/30 mix to erradicate water molecules.
