[Tigers] Nitrogen filled tire fad

Well, if using it is pointless, I will let our mx department know we should stop using it in the jet tires.
Or maybe not.

Ahh but Helium is a smaller molecule and like the Nitrogen sales pitch says
it
won't leak out through the porous tire and bead ;) How about Argon, another
easy to get gas at the welding supply, but I think the regulator is more
expensive then the Nitrogen Beer types. In any case you can make your own
tank
pretty easy, I'll put up some pics of what I did, it's pretty simple and
actually very handy.

A better solution would be helium, as it
might make the car a little lighter.  I don't recommend the use of
hydrogen.
Ask the Hidenberg guys!

That would bring a whole new meaning to
'Light up your tires!!'  lol!
