Here in Michigan, Belle Tire fills all new tires with Nitrogen free of charge.

I have done it to my Equinox.. Why not you know.. It was like 20 bucks for all four..

You can tell by green valve stem caps or some use green o-rings between the valve stem and the valve stem cap.

yea but your tires hold about 40psi of nitrogen and then paintball tank holds about 1200psi of nitrogen...I guarantee you there's more air in that tank than your tire.
