I thought Italian air was only available in metric sizes. How did you convert to standard/English dimensions?

I can't believe y'all are suggesting that the OP actually change the air in their tires.......EVERYONE knows it's much more cost effective to rotate the air between tires to get as much use out of it as possible.

There's a Jersey Shore joke in here somewhere but for the life of me I can't think what it would be.

That was one of the biggest pains when Ford decided to use the #$#@% millimetric rims back in the 80's. Had no choice but to go with the uber expensive import air. Couldn't just get it anywhere you know. AAA had to have special trucks just to assist the Ford customers.

So if you get air at a gas station how do you know where the air came from? Would it be the same part of the world where they get their oil? I would hate to end up with muslim air.

Make sure you document the removal of the original air and save it. Couple of old peanut butter jars should do the trick. Just think 40yrs from now if you sell your call on Barrett Jackson you'll be able to command top dollar with all original parts!

That's a real hassle when you have a Dayton, Cooper, Michelin, and Lemans tire on your ride! I'm guessing I need 3 american airs and 1 french air? Someone help! I don't wanna destroy my tires with the wrong air!

Oh Lord. The next wave in collector car madness - original air. Poor muscle cars are going to be vacuum sealed in a mayonnaise jar on Funk and Wagnall's porch.
