Many of us just top off with air. It is 78% nitrogen. Search for many discussions on the subject.

One of the most asked questions on this forum. A search will bring up thousands of posts.

Unless you can get 100% Nitrogen for FREE, just use regular old air.

I refill my N2 tires with "Nitrogen Lite" It's 12% less Nitrogen than regular N2.

Basically every tire out there is mainly filled with nitrogen. Regular air is 78% nitrogen anyway.

This may help you understand:
