I got Nitrogen filled in Apollo acelere's
Why did I get it filled?
It was free at IOC opposite EIL near Hyatt on Ring road
Results:
1. Ride is very smooth now. But the reason is that earlier tire pressure was 40PSI, now its 32(all 4)
Benefits I will get(I hope so)
1. Fewer fills
2. Tires won't get heated that much as the tarmac is cooking nowadays(44 degrees here)

I have a tire pressure gauge. So as a test I am going to check the pressure in morning in garage(cool tyre) and then the pressure in the evening after a run, and report the exact different here.
Accuracy of tire guage does not matter, as the same guage is being used, all I want to see is what is the different. Earlier 30PSI cold used to go 35PSI hot and after highway runs 38PSI too.
