No, they're absolutely correct. Using pure nitrogen instead of air reduces the moisture content in the tire, which means more consistent pressures as the temperature changes. Lots of racers have used only N2 in their tires for quite some time now.
Whether or not it's actually worth paying a premium for in a daily driver is debatable. |
