But if you insist on going that route, fill them to 30 psi.

Nitro fill pressure?
I just installed some brand new Hankook v12's and am planning on getting the tires nitrogen filled. What should I ask them to fill them at? If it's cold pressure I was thinking 28 front and rear?

Laugh all you want, but after filling the tires with Nitrogen and adding a performance hood seal, my mpg increased 2 billion percent.
Next up, the turbonator and I'm pretty sure it will start generating it's own gas after that.
Seriously though OP, nothing wrong with N2, just keep expectations in check. The biggest benefit from it is that there is no moisture in it like typical compressed air and as others mentioned, a little more consistant pressure.
