Trailer Tires Part 2

Eric Kitzan · 07-17-2010, 11:13 PM

Something that I do with my Semi Truck and trailer tires is instead of regular compressed air I use nitrogen. The nitrogen molecules are 3 times larger then regular air so you will not get a low tire when trailer is sitting for extended periods of time. And they run cooler also. I was pulling a triple axle cattle trailer and I had to replace the tires on two of the axles and I used the nitrogen the other had regular air, and when I fuel up I always feel my tires, the tires with the nitrogen were noticably cooler then the other ones.
