This article focuses on a program by TheBus in Honolulu, Hawaii, in which the firm converted its compressed air tires to nitrogen tires for its bus fleet. Nitrogen loss is lesser compared to compressed air loss through the tire casing, which may improve miles per gallon. Nitrogen for tires can be obtained from a nitrogen generator. The firm has already converted its 230 buses to nitrogen for its Pearl City division.
