What nitrogen does that is better than plain ol' air is that it doesn't degrade the tires, due to a lack of oxygen. However, as anyone with winter and summer tires hanging in the garage 6 months of the year will know, the tires them selves wear out before the insides get brittle due to atmospheric problems.
Nitrogen does NOT leak out more slowly than air. Air is 80-some percent nitrogen and therefore should behave pretty much exactly the same. Other "parts" of air have larger molecules even than nitrogen, so would "leak" even slower.

Let's all try t okeep up here, OK? Nitrogen is simply a great way to make money from people who like fads.

Actually all the dealers in my area will put N2 in your tires for free...so I guess that blows away your theory.

Oh and BTW, go here for the truth about N2....
