Re: Wheels Problem
I think i just misunderstood what Rodman meant.. I thought he was recommending to Adam to use 42 and 40. I didn't realize he was quoting his own PSI recommendations on his own vehicle.
The joys of Internet socializing! My car is stock 16's.

Just pointing out that my Audi's recommended wasn't 32.

Re: Wheels Problem
Super idea - Thanks
Nitrogen is a big molecule so it would not escape readily from the tires.
Do you know who sells it? and how to ask for it so they do not call the cops?
(Once I asked for Freon and the silly called the cops)

Re: Wheels Problem
Still lot's of mixed opinion about pro's/con's of nitrogen. If it's free and convenient to get, I'd go for it. It will still leak, just at a slower rate. If you have to pay and then drive across town to find it when you need to top up...forget it. There's no scientific evidence I've seen that confirms any of the claims you hear about it...just anecdotal stuff. Air is 78% nitrogen and you are increasing the level to about 94%.
Adam, a quick drop from 42 to 20 seems strange..sure your gauge is OK?
