Aircraft tyres are inflated with nitrogen, which is inert.

Gas shocks are pressurised... which Varches are depends on price... cheapy cheap ones are oil only, better ones have a gas element :y

Interesting. Not worth the risk of them being turfed out and being lost.

I am thinking I might as well have them shipped. It will be about £20. It is just a pain at this end as the courier companies will not deliver to rural properties- you have to down tools and go and meet them somewhere. The joys of living in Paradise.
