    I'm about out of the special air required for TRD Pro tires. Does anyone know where to get the best price?

    Wally World would be my first choice. Those guys in the maintenance bays are legit.

    If you want the good quality air that you can trust, gotta make it yourself. Start blowing into the valve.

    Good question. I think they blow it out with compressed air. :crapstorm:

    They have to put a hole thru one of the lugs, and then run Nitrogen thru the valve stem until all the inferior air is flushed out. Then, they put a plug in the tire, and boom, all nitrogen and no compressed air.

    Hole through lug?? Because sucking out all the air doesn't look good for the tire. :confused:

    You might end up on PRObation at best. Depends on how well the PROsecution does their job.

    Only one of the tires has special air. You're supposed to rotate it every 5000 miles so the air gets even wear. If you forget this step, your air will become less effective and will need to be replaced sooner. A lot of the guys on here carry a reserve of special air, but when it builds up pressure, they have to release it, much to their spouses' disdain.
