Non unless you want to waste your money imo  ;D
Not a bad idea in theory but you would have to suck all the ait out first then replace it with nitrogen for any benefit which your average tyre fitter just can't do  :)

Agreed, probably vital for Formula 1, but unnecessary for a standard road car, IMHO. If your tyre fitter offers it as a matter of course, then so much the better, but not worth paying for, IMHO.

Kwik-Fit try to promote it any time you visit, but at about £2 per tyre - no thanks!

Costco use it as standard.

Made no odds IMO. I'd consider its usefull to hold a specific pressure more accurately but that's only a theory as yet unproven ime. So can't comment further.
