Default Tire hook up anyone?

Looking for a decent shop that'll sell me Dunlop Direzza DZ101, for cheaper than $114/ea.
I only care for the tires, i can get it installed myself.
Please if you have any hookups or maybe someone who owes you a favor, lmk!

Really appreciate any advice/help

Nitrogen is a marketing scam. Don't bother unless you can get it done for free.

When you fill up your tireswith regular air... its.. 75% is Nitro, the rest is 02, C02 etc and something else.

The 02 migrates in and out of rubber quicker.

Nitrogen, does not penatrate thru- tires as much and remains stable and consistant.



Normal drivers: No difference.

Racer: Yes. On normal air, you can be at 26-28 cold and up to 35-38 Hot in the tracks. This will be more stable as every PSI counts for the racer. Less pressure changes, means less air in and out during the race.

^ Conditions change at the track all the time so unless you are taking a tank of C02 with you then I suggest regular air for tracking purposes.

Regular air is free and very accessible pretty much anywhere.

C02 is different than Nitrogen
