Nitrogen in your tires? It's a waste of money. Air is 80% nitrogen. The stuff they put in your tires is only 95% nitrogen. Dry air would be completely indistinguishable from 95% N2. Any handling/harshness improvements you feel are imaginary. And forget about better gas mileage. You'll get more benefits from running a few extra PSI of air than from switching to nitrogen.

Pure nitrogen has some slight benefit over dry air. What you get with your green stem caps is only 95% nitrigen--the rest is mostly oxygen, which means you don't get the tire-life-extending benefits of pure nitrogen.
But if you're filling your tires with "wet" air--using a compressor without a dryer--then you might see some benefit from a 95% nitrogen fill. But for $5/tire, I really doubt it's worth it. Plus, are you going to top it off with nitrogen every time a tire is low?
