According to the specialized site Revista Motor, when putting nitrogen in the tires there are clear benefits but mostly not very functional. If we manage to inflate the tire with pure nitrogen, when it heats up on long journeys, at very high speed, the pressure does not increase and then it maintains the exact tread and in the ideal shape. If this happens, the grip of the rubber will be the best. However, in normal car traffic, even on the highway, it is very unlikely that the tire will get hot enough to benefit from this property.
Advantages of Nitrogen
- Filling the tires with nitrogen will make the tire harder, making it more difficult for it to deform.
- Nitrogen allows for minimal increase in the internal force of the gas within the tire at very high operating temperatures.
- Avoid pressure losses, for example through the valves, small pores or the union between the rim and the tire.
- Extends the life of tires and rims.
- In the event of a puncture, nitrogen-inflated tires tend to lose pressure more slowly.
Automotive brands work to adapt their vehicles to ecopaís and extra gasoline
Disadvantages of Nitrogen
- Additional price.
- Loss of effect if the tire must be filled with normal air.
- It is not always available.
How to choose a good tire
Selecting the ideal tire for a vehicle, especially a sports one, is a matter of great relevance since making the wrong decision on the model, brand or type of tire can cause problems with handling, fuel efficiency and even tire wear. Experts say that the type of driving is very important when choosing the ideal tire for a sports car, since they need greater grip and stability. Also, you have to consider the type of roads where you drive, because if it is a 4×4 vehicle it needs high performance tires; while if we use the vehicle only in the city, such as an SUV, tires with low rolling resistance should be chosen.
