Nitrogen for Tires [Merged]

[mcbry]

tanong ko lang guyz ano dapat ang standard PSI ilagay ko po for city driving pag naka fill ng nitrogen gas po?

knowing na di na nag eexpand unlike ordinary oxygen sa tires 29 psi thanks

ok lang din 29psi.
i use 30psi.

Pano ba malalaman ang tire size? hiram ko kasi 94 corolla ng pinsan ko and hindi ko alam size and ilan dapat PSI lagay ko?

naka sulat sa sidewall ng tire.
assuming yung corolla nung pinsan mo eh naka stock, its 185/65/14.

its the same...
ang pagkakaiba lang nila, since nitro does not expand, your tire pressure remains consistent at 30 psi (assuming you had it inflated to 30 psi) during long runs. if using ordinary compressed air, if you inflate it at 30 psi and you do a long drive, it may expand up to 32-33 psi.

diba if nahaluan ito ng ordinary oxigen mawawala effect nito? eto ginawa ng henyong driver namin ! ampz from 29 ginawang 35psi

N (Nitrogen) + O2 (Oxygen) = NO3. technically, you have nitrous oxide in there bro... ang problem mo na lang is to put in inside your engine, hindi sa goma...

seriously, mawawala effect. the weight of oxygen will negate the lightness and density nung nitrogen.

thanks sa reply sir so dapat po ang ilagay kong psi sa tire with nitrogen is 33 to 35 psi ? ty

N + O2 = NO2 or Nitrogen dioxide
N + O = NO or nitric oxide
NO & NO2 = NOx (this is bad for the environment)

NOS is used in racing and not NOX.. NOS stands for Nitrous Oxide system (N2O)

Under normal temperatures, Nitrogen and Oxygen will not mix unless they are subjected to high heat..

so even if you mix nitrogen and AIR (which is composed of different gases including nitrogen and oxygen) like what will happen if you fill your tire with nitrogen and then you need to refill with compressed air..basically they will not MIX...

one use of nitrogen in the manufacturing industry is to prevent oxidation of materials... Nitrogen is commonly introduced to oxygen sensitive materials to prevent corrosion or oxidation due to its reaction to oxygen...in cabinet with Nitrogen gas supply, it will basically move out the Oxygen or Air thus prolonging the life of the material inside...

so one advantage of using nitrogen aside from constant air pressure is you can prevent corrosion of your RIMS or MAG Wheels especially on the LIP where corrosion exists thus making the seal between the rim and tire weak..

do MAGs corrode? cause ive had my van for 5 years nw and im using just normal air.. and i havent seen any corrosion.

yes especially yung mga plated mag wheels like chrome... they are very prone to corrosion in the long run...

yung mag wheels ko dati sa mazda ko eh chrome.. nasira yung lip ng magwheels due to corrosion..may tubig (moisture) kasi sa loob kaya ayun na corrode then may singaw na unti

but to be practical it is recommended to use compressed air..dagdag gastos lang kung mag pa nitrogen pa...

just make sure check nyo muna yung air to be loaded sa tires nyo na WALANG halong tubig... you can check by releasing air from the air filler kung may "mist" ng tubig...
