Cleaner than filtered compressed air - No
What about the rubber deteriorating on the OUTSIDE of the tire?
Nitrogen expands just like all other gasses in response to temperature - so I believe Boyle would argue that point with you.
How could they run cooler than an air filled tire at the same pressure? Does nitrogen push the heat from friction out the back door?
But you do get a pretty green cap for your money. Maybe they'll put a pretty green sign on your bridge too.
