The shop that I go to, uses a Nitrogen blend for tires. I think it's 78% Nitrogen.

Serially? Are they just pumping pure nitrogen without purging the existing air, which would result in some kind of mix, or are they really hawking a proprietary blend with the same composition as air (thus making it...air)?

You swallowed the hook. Actually V tail got a whole stringer full.

You could save some money by removing the weights from the other three tires, thereby negating the problem from your lighter tire missing the weight.

This should balance the vehicle and keep the missing tire from lifting off the ground from the missing weight... Big Grin

Besides, if you removed the weights from all four wheels there’d be nothing to keep the car from floating away. Surprised that you didn’t know that.
