We do not recommend Dyna Beads in any low-profile performance tire, nor in the Goodyear Fortera style tires. A low-profile tire is generally defined by an aspect ratio below 70, such as "225/60 R15". We do not recommend our product to correct wobble, shimmy or shake, all a function of lateral imbalance or defective suspension components.

Rep Power: 0 Hah. Nitrogen will not give you a better ride. All of the tire shops in my city put nitrogen in your car. You must understand that the regular air pumped into tires from the air you breathe is about 78% nitrogen (N2), 21% oxygen (O2), and about 1% other mixed gases. It is the oxygen and mixed gases which are smaller than the nitrogen molecules. These gases slowly leak out over time since they are able to permeate the tire better than the nitrogen gas. This should reduce the need to replenish lost air, however, you must consider the fact that air pressure is also affected by temperature. Any other touted benefits of nitrogen such as corrosion prevention etc, is purely an esoteric thing. Regular air has been used in car tires as long as there have been pneumatic tires and I have yet to see a wheel rust from the inside out due to air. Just use a pressure gauge and check your tires monthly and you'll be fine using "regular" air.
I'll flip out and kill people.

Rep Power: 365 ^the corrosion is referring to the tire itself. long periods of time and heat (from friction while driving) can* cause the tire itself to break down, which is true. nitrogen, which does not promote corrosion, helps prevent this. however, yes, its not a big deal because 99.9% of people wear out their tires or get irrepairable damage before any type of internal corrosion occurs. nitrogen is also lighter, which makes a difference in some peoples minds for racing, but is an almost non-existent advantage.
