how about replacing oem air in all four tires with fresh 06 air or perhaps a nitrogen recharge for all four tires.

Hey, with the temperature swings I'm getting in my area right now I'd love to have nitrogen in the tires. I just don't know of anywhere that has it available without a tire purchase.

Actually, that would be one of the worse things you could use. The smaller helium atoms would leak out at an even higher rate than air or nitrogen. At least it's inert and wouldn't deteriorate the rubber.
