The hills in Bosnia do not "line up exactly to four sides" as you claim. What's your supporting data?

]]> Comment on Nitrogen Tire Scam part 3 by Jay http://ahotcupofjoe.wordpress.com/2008/07/16/nitrogen-tire-scam-part-3/#comment-526 Jay Mon, 17 Aug 2009 18:08:22 +0000 http://ahotcupofjoe.wordpress.com/?p=238#comment-526 I think the arguments for using nitrogen are the best for proving it to be a scam. If the oxygen leaks out more quickly than nitrogen, then each time we air up a low tire we increase the percentage of nitrogen. After a half dozen fills, the gas in the tire should be 99+% nitrogen and we got there without the expense of the initial nitrogen fill. Moisture in air can cause problems but since I live in Texas and have aluminum wheels, it isn't much of a worry. I think the arguments for using nitrogen are the best for proving it to be a scam.
