My mechanic is pushing the benefits of nitrogen claiming, among other things, a consistent tire pressure at all speeds. I am anal about tire pressure, and always comply with mfg recommendation of 33 front, 40 rear, on my stock Bridgestone Potenzas. Since this pressure now increases about 3 psi shortly after starting to drive, I'm thinking that the mfg took this into consideration when recommending cold tire pressure. If this is true, and nitrogen doesn't change pressure based on heat and driving, shouldn't I then set the pressure at 36 front/43 rear when I get my nitrogen fill?
