Only bad part about nitrogen is that if they get low, you can't fill with regular air anywhere, you need to topoff only with nitrogen. That's why I haven't used nitrogen. Once you put it in the tires you are committed to it, can't switch or top off with regular air.

Topping off nitrogen filled tires with compressed air is no problem. We recommend that you use nitrogen in your tires whenever possible, but if you run into a situation where you can’t get it, no problem. Go ahead and “top-off” your tires with air. Later, you can return to your dealer to have your tires purged of the air and refilled with nitrogen.

While nitrogen will help you maintain proper pressure, you should still check your tires on a regular basis and/or as recommended by the tire manufacturer.
