What are the benefits of nitrogen-filled tyres?
I have the advantages of pure nitrogen in tyres from a leaflet from a tyre fitting centre. What in your view are the disadvantages? At £2.50 per wheel it seem at first to be a no-brainer but your view would be welcomed.

Michelin says there is no tangible advantage for everyday car use. Air is 88 per cent nitrogen anyway.
