I have personally tested the differences in pressure fluctuation and it is actually quite drastic.
Pure nitrogen also leaks much slower than air. Saying that air is 78% nitrogen is a bogus argument. It's 22% other components. It's those components that are the problem. That's like saying water is part Oxygen, so go ahead and breathe it.
i agree, its not a scam bh any means but its nothing people should be charging for.there are people who refuse to out anything but nitrogen and its a little extreme. if yiu have access to it, then yes, its worth putting in over normal compressed air but nothing to worry about paying for IMO. Most of its benefits like the pressure fluctuation isnt a big deal if you just check your pressure once a month like recommended....
