The latest from the dealership
GOT NITROGEN?
Mercedes Benz of San Diego is proud to offer our customers nitrogen tire inflation for only $59.95. Nitrogen is a non-flammable dry gas that keeps your tires inflated longer than "plain old air". Because of its larger molecular size, nitrogen migrates through a tire three to four times slower than oxygen. A tire filled with "plain old air" will lose 1.5 PSI in less than a month; with nitrogen, this could take three months or longer. The benefits to having your tires filled with nitrogen are:

One advantage of nitrogen is that it is less likely to leak out.
The best argument I have heard for nitrogen is that it is dry. Compressed air often carries water with it, especially when it comes from cheap gas station compressors that don't have any driers. Water inside your tire is a bad thing, especially in freezing weather. |

Any one that gets that done is a moron.
Air already is 78% nitrogen by volume. Oxygen is only 21%. What are they going to do next? Start selling water in a bottle for $5?

It's a pain, you have to check your tire pressure every 4-5 months. All that bending and stooping. Plus those valve stems can get all yucky with dirt and brake dust. It can get quite trying at times.
