yes if you use very dry compressed air it should be ok. but most tire shop only use an air pump and the air in your tire is just as good as the air you are breathing on that particular day.

air is 80% N2 anyway.
at the end of the day, this damn thing only cost $200 for the lifttime of your wheel (I assume you can still get the service if the hologram is on even if you change the wheel to the other car), doesn't worth the investation at all.![Tongue](https://5series.net/forums/images/smilies/imported/tongue.gif)

Well, I have tried the F02 (all 730iL, 740iL, 750iL) on Mon and Panamera 4S on Tue and had been very confused and depressed ever since, that's why I didn't want to talk much about it over the week...
730iL:
- this one gives no driving pleasure
- it comes with all the options I always get
- it is ready for pickup right away
- it is a 2nd hand from BMWHK, but brand new
- free reg for one year
740iL:
- this one gives pretty good driving pleasure because of its twin turbo
- it comes with all the options I always want, except GPS
- it is ready for pickup right away
- it is a 2nd hand from BMWHK, but brand new
- free reg for one year
- it is actually a 3L engine, ie. cheaper reg
750iL:
- this one is a real beast under the sheep skin
- it comes with all the options I always want, except GPS
- it is ready for pickup right away
- it is a 2nd hand from BMWHK, but brand new
- free reg for one year
For all three models above carries the same problem, eveyone I know tells me their resell value really sux, frankly, from what I check from the historic stuffs from both the magazine and the internet, it seems to be true.
Porsche Panamera S (or 4S)
- this is THE winner no doubt, but I admit, it not as friendly to the passengers as the F02
- the options is going to cost me at least another 100k
- the earliest availability would be May/Jun or even Jul
- its a 1st hand
- reg is going to cost me

see what you will be using it for.
if for your own family eg wife and kids then the Porsche Panamera S
if you planing to have you dad or mum in the back then 7er
If money is ok I will 100% go for the Porsche Panamera S
then I can book it to buy it in 5 years time from you

my last car which has taiwan 19" ACS type4 racing wheels which are about 37lb for the rims and my fuel went up $0.1 to $0.2 per km
but for my 18" works on my stepwgn I have save fuel about $0.1 per km.
get the bryton GTS silver to match you car. only 21lb each at $3700 each it is the best on the market right now.
If you going for looks then dont every think about the feul consumption.

I just dont know why a 530i over 7 years can be faster than a new lci 530i with the same mods and also you can save fuel on your car
