"Squeeky voice" I think this is urban legend...sounds vaguely familiar.

If your referring to nitrogen in tires thing then Costco's buying the legend.

I also heard...
- decreases 0-60 times - resists punctures better - makes the sidewalls shiny - no more ArmorAll - repels brake dust - eliminates road noise - decreases understeer - grips better in snow - can use your 20's in snow Seriously though, while it may help a bit, I can't imagine you'd notice anything if you keep your tires at the right pressure...

I don't know myself but proponents say that tires inflated with pure nitrogen wear longer, stay inflated longer, improve gas mileage, resist metallic degradation and fouling of stems, won't support combustion in case of fire and are free from the corrosive effects of water.
There might be a slight increase in gas mileage, presumably because the pressure is more likely to remain constant when nitrogen is used So is it worth it? That's probably one of those things in life you won't know the answer to until you try it.
